Why They Want to Substitute Teach

I love teaching and being around children. Its very uplifting. I prefer sticking to one or two schools so I am able to establish a more enriched, familiar and supportive relationship with students and staff. I am often at Gates Mills Elementary School. I love to be part of nourishing/educating each child to the best of my ability within the school's curriculum and regular teacher's instructions as my guideline. The goal is to respect the students individuality, to inspire their creativity and curiosity....To spark more awareness and appreciation of their inner and outer world,

About Them

I am a professional artist for 30+ years now. Taking on commissions in painting, drawing, sculpting, etc.... adjusting to all varieties of people, environments and tasks that comes with this is valuable practice for flexible substituting! I enjoy my family and friends which includes many young children from 3 - 17. ❤️ Worldview ...Strong, aware, informed, compassionate individuals ...they are the building blocks, the foundation of family, community, their nation and the world. Weakness - angelfood cake. Fear - heights. Love - animals, but struggle with appreciating spiders.😬 Favorite saying... "Find out what's going wrong and work to fix it. Notice what's going right and do more of that." - My Father, Donald S. Peters

Experience with Children
