Your Instructor
Hello,
My name is Mrs. Saavedra. I am excited and welcome you here to my online classroom. Please feel free to contact me anytime you do not understand something, or you are just looking for additional practice.
I am originally from Denison, Iowa, but currently live in the big state of Texas. I am married to a man from South America (Uruguay). I have a daughter and four stepchildren.
I have been in the educational field since 2004. I graduated with a Bachelors in English with a Writing concentration and a Minor in Spanish. I am currently enrolled in a teacher certification program, and have eighteen modules left in order to have another degree in Education. In the past three years, I have spent my time as an ESL English and Reading Teacher at the high school level. I have enjoyed each and every one of my students, who still today, keep me connected to what his/her accomplishment/s is/are going to be.
Here is my Philosophy of Teaching Statement:
MY PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION STATEMENT IS THAT EVERY STUDENT SHOULD HAVE THE SAME OPPORTUNITY TO ACHIEVE AT THE SAME RATE AS OTHER STUDENTS. ALSO, ALL STUDENTS LEARN DIFFERENTLY IN WHICH CONSTRUCTIVISM WOULD BE IMPORTANT IN MY CLASSROOM, SO THAT ALL STUDENTS CAN GET A VISUAL, HANDS-ON, AND AUDITORY LEARNING ENVIRONMENT IN ORDER TO MEET HIS/HER NEEDS
