Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello my name is Julie and I am from Toronto, Ontario in Canada. I have had many passions throughout my life varying from academic to extra-curricular activities. Teaching has always been my passion from a very young age. I started working with children 20 years ago as a young teen through babysitting for family and friends in our neighbourhood and still enjoy working with children to date. In my ample experience in working with children and raising my own there is no denying that everyone is unique in their skills and abilities and at any given moment in life there is an opportunity for a teachable moment.
Currently I am teaching ESL online to individuals ranging from young children to older adulthood at varying levels of English skills and abilities. I make developmental observations, document and give appropriate feedback regarding their strengths and weaknesses as well as provide them with suggestions for improvements and practice activities.
Most of my previous teaching experiences are working with young children ranging from birth to 12 years of age. My role and responsibilities included planning and delivery of inclusive play-based learning programs as well as teaching school curriculum in all subjects in following my local government appointed curriculum regulations. Some of my other passions include cooking and baking. I have always included my children and extended family members in cooking, baking and decorating with me and have recently been providing these same experiences for my friends children individually and in groups.
My teaching philosophy focuses on student success through an innovative, safe and inclusive learning environment where they will be encouraged to pursue their passions. Student’s academic and personal excellence will be promoted through empowerment, self-motivation, creativity and co-operation. I rely on my strong sense of community and truly value their involvement to attribute to success.
I welcome the opportunity to work with your children. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
