Dysart Unified School District | Aug 2022 - May 2023

CTE Teacher - Coding Instructor

Passionate CTE Teacher specializing in Coding and Software Development with a proven track record of guiding students to success. I have had the privilege of leading and instructing a cohort of 14 talented students through CTE standards, leading to several earning certifications. At the core of my teaching philosophy is a commitment to empowering students with the skills and knowledge needed to thrive in the ever-evolving world of coding. I believe in creating a dynamic and inclusive learning environment that fosters creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration. By implementing goal-oriented projects, I have provided students with hands- on experiences to showcase their proficiency in Python, JavaScript, & HTML/ CSS. One of my proudest accomplishments has been the significant number of students who successfully passed the Technical Skills Assessment (TSA) and earned a certificate recognized by the Arizona Department of Education. In fact, the pass rate of 9 out of 11 students in my cohort reflects the dedication and hard work we collectively put into their learning journey. This achievement marks the second-highest pass rate for our school in the past four years. To ensure the relevance and currency of the curriculum, I actively engage in curriculum development and evaluation. By staying informed about emerging technologies and industry trends, I am able to provide students with the most up-to-date knowledge and skills required for success in the coding and software development field. The true measure of my success lies in the accomplishments and achievements of my students, who have gone on to pursue further studies and/or embark on successful careers in coding and software development.
