Good, Supportive Math Teacher, All Children Succeed

I am currently a classroom Mathematics Teacher at a Construction trade school. I am also in the process of enrolling in the Foundational Level Mathematics (FLM) Credential Program, a single subject Teaching Credential that allows me to teach up to Advanced Algebra into High School. For most of the State-Wide Unified School Districts it's acceptable to have the Credential OR be enrolled in a Credential Program. I have studied the subject matter material extensively, so l can sit for the FLM Examinations on short notice. I am a Mathematics subject matter expert and a Mechanical Engineer, so I bring strong Mathematics & Technical Education knowledge, for potential Engineers/Scientists, i.e. Pathways programs for Middle School. I have tutored hundreds of classroom hours with AP/Honors course tutoring over the past six years for our two children, Christina and Christopher Jr. They have been successful with all their AP/Honors level course work in their respective High Schools, as they pursue College at this time. My Teaching and Engineering Professions I took after my Mother (Edna Wade) who was a principal and long-time teacher at Queen of All Saints Parish in Concord, Ca. I have her passion and love for teaching and student growth. I was born in San Francisco and grew up in Concord, Ca. I attended Catholic K-12 schools and graduated with Academic Honors at the prestigious De La Salle Catholic High School in Concord. As a Mechanical Engineering major, I then endured through Diablo Valley J.C. in Pleasant Hill, Ca., taking and getting an A-grade in every Mathematics course that DVC offered. After completing all the lower division Mathematics, Chemistry and College Physics at DVC, I transferred to the University of Alaska in Fairbanks, Alaska for my Mechanical Engineering major and degree. After graduation I worked with a local Engineering firm in the day time and worked toward a Master’s Degree in Engineering Management by attending evening classes.
