Who has inspired you in your life and why?

I am an extremely dedicated employee. At my current position, I will pull the hours needed to complete a task with no questions asked. I help lead our team and am usually the person someone will go to to help solve their issue.
I take personal pride in a project being successful and not harping on how we got there or who did what, instead, focusing on the fact that we did get there. I not only have the career background for this position but also have the experience as an end user with your software. I know how it is on both sides and can use my experience to help our end users.

question
Describe your teaching style.
Anonymous Answer
I have grown into an analytical teacher. Learning how to align learning targets with states standards is benefiting my ability to understand which lessons I need to revisit for my students. And in turn, this information allows me to build a lesson with more creative energy. For example, if I notice my students are weaker in a particular standard than I know my original method is not working. So, I need to think outside the box and gather more strategies from new sources.
You know your teaching style well, and you sound very confident in your approach. Excellent answer!

In my current role, I am responsible for creating a weekly schedule. I didn't have any data regarding our busiest times of the week so I had to guess and still remain under staffing budget but at the same time avoid understaffing. I used my logic and past experience at other pharmacies to make decisions on staff scheduling.
I reworded this just a touch, to help with the flow. Otherwise, good response.

American Airlines is my dream airline, they are the biggest and the best, and I've always believed in shooting for the stars. I also love their cultural diversity and treating others with respect, but what is near and dear to my heart is their dedication to the American Airlines cadet program that encourages young girls and boys in the scouts to pursue pilot careers. Overall I love that AA is on the cutting edge of technology because great is what I'm going for!
