Question 30 of 30

What is your greatest strength?

"This past year I was recognized by my faculty supervisor for my innovative thinking. I was able to research and implement a new reading program that incorporated music and art across all grade levels. The students were enthusiastic about it, and it was effective for the students struggling with reading, because it gave them another avenue to process the tasks. So, I would say that I'm not afraid to seek out new ideas and do the work required to put them into practice."

      "One of my greatest strengths is my ability to build rapport with students. Every Monday morning I ask the second-graders if they had a good weekend and what they did. Then, I would tell them something that I did over the weekend like cleaning my house, or going to dinner, or seeing a friend. Building a rapport with children is important because it makes them more cooperative."
