"Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today." - Malcolm X
Welcome to my digital portfolio!“Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today” (Malcolm X). This famous civil rights leader’s point is that only the people who work to be prepared for the future, are the ones who truly seize their future. As teachers in an ever changing century of technology, global competition, and social awareness, our student’s necessity for a rigorous education that gives them the skills and abilities to be adaptable and well rounded is felt more than ever. Teaching these children the needs of tomorrow is a challenge, one that requires someone who is adaptable to reach a variety of learning styles and levels, able to build a strong rapport with their classes, uses a variety of learning strategies, and is constantly assessing those strategies to ensure students success as well as continue to improve the techniques that fall short.
During my four years as a teacher, I have been exposed to a wide range of teaching experiences that have given me many benefits. Here you will find the highlights of my growth as a teacher. Feel free to peruse through the tabs above which will guide you through more information about me, my publications, lesson and unit plans I have created, and more. Thank you for your time and interest in my teaching career. Thank You, Rebecca A. Schwartz |
