am a recent M.Phil. Scholar from Institute of Education and Research, Punjab University. I have done my Masters in Early Childhood Teaching with a Spoken English Course. My ability to build positive relationships with students and peers, variety of teaching experiences and recent coursework in curriculum and instruction strategies, integration and writing across curricula will enable me to be a great asset in research field. During my placement as a KG teacher at Innovators School in Lahore, I have learned and applied a broad range of creative teaching strategies. For example, I constructed my lesson plans by first consulting the Common Core Standards for clear objectives and learning goals. Every student’s experience was enriched by differentiating lessons for learning styles, IEPs, 504s, gifted/talented abilities, as well as cultural and socio-economic needs. I incorporated parent volunteers into classroom activities whenever possible and integrated technology to engage learners. I implemented a variety of assessments to ensure evidence of successful learning throughout each unit. Above all, I encouraged students to assume a very active responsibility for their own learning. My students enthusiastically made strategic choices, reflected on their learning processes, collaborated often, and submitted constant input. Every one of my students knew what we were learning, why we were learning it, and how it applied to the world beyond the classroom. As part of my student teaching and practical experiences, I also had the opportunity to work closely with both departmental and building wide teams. As a student teacher, I collaborated with colleagues to develop goals that will be followed for the remainder of the school year. I also actively participated in extra-curricular activities and volunteered for extra duties demonstrating an enthusiasm and true desire to be part of the pre-school colorful events.
