SUMMARY OF SKILLS/TRAITS AND CIRCUMSTANCES
After being self-employed
for over eight years, I decided a sabbatical or possibly a career change is
appropriate. I’ve returned to Auburn
University to bring my teaching certification (Secondary Social Studies) current
and will work, according to the pace my circumstances allow, toward my Masters
in Education. Further academic and
career options will at least be explored.
I was and will be an effective classroom teacher and certainly that is a
solid option for my future. I’m in the
process of relocating to Auburn and winding down my business but am presently
seeking employment in East Alabama or West Georgia. I can provide a prospective
employer concrete examples of these skills and characteristics being applied.
I’m dependable and physically fit. “Critically thinking, effectively
communicating, working diligently, possessing creativity, managing and being
proficient with people/technology/equipment/information, leading and guiding,
solving problems, going the extra mile, being agreeable and polite, following
directions, being an advocate and evaluator, thinking globally and with
appreciation for diversity” … all of
these positive traits would hopefully be evident to my employer.
