Intervention Workshop Certificate and Training and Reporting of Child Abuse and Maltreatment
Certificate are all important professional development certificates within my MSED Elementary
which focuses on the safety of our youth. Children are among the most vulnerable in our society and
as such, it is of the utmost importance that we protect their safety and well-being. Through my
participation in these valuable workshops, I have gained skills and knowledge in the areas of
identifying indicators of potential distress and abuse; both of the physical and mental/emotional
variety. I have gained knowledge about how to report abuse while supporting the best interests and
well-being of the student(s) involved. I understand the sensitive nature of abusive situations and will
conduct myself with the highest level of discretion. Further to this, I am equipped with the awareness
of how factors such as culture, socio-economic status, religion and ethnicity can impact how
collaborative relationship with other professionals within the school and the community in order to
offer the most appropriate support for each individual situation. This speaks to my care and concern
for the health and well-being of all students in my classroom. In addition, my Netsmartz Workshop
to identify 9 different components of digital citizenship. Digital literacy and ethics are important
skills for any educator to have and through my participation in this workshop, I learned how to
identify concerns, address potentially harmful situations, educate students about the dangers of
unsafe use of technology and how to empower each student to be a responsible digital citizen for
their own protection and that of others. This is a valuable set of skills I have gained which will
definitely be an asset that I will use while leading my students in the classroom.
MSED Elementary Portfolio Project. This workshop taught me the value of teaching science,
technology, engineering, arts and math with an open mind. My certificate demonstrates that I have a
desire to learn from others about how to best reach all students through engaging them in hands-on
learning while meeting various levels of curriculum requirements. This workshop reinforced the
value of educating all students equally while and encouraging every student, regardless of race,
gender or ethnicity. It was noted that subjects such as math, science or engineering have traditionally
been areas of focus for male students while arts and languages were more typically pursued by
female students. In using the STEAM approach to teaching, I believe that I have the ability to inspire
my students love of the whole curriculum as I endeavor to teach without preconceived notions or
biases.
My Respect In Sport Certification from the Ontario Womens Hockey Association and my
letter of reference from the Rockwood FC Soccer Association speak to my love of supporting
children in physical education. I thoroughly enjoy my time teaching and engaging in extra-curricular
activities with students and youth. I believe that my involvement with these organizations
demonstrates my abilities as a role model and leader both inside the school and within the local
community. Being an involved and passionate coach and leader demonstrates to parents and children
that I am a caring educator with a desire to teach students the value of exercising their minds and
bodies to support good overall health. As an active member of our local community, I am able to
demonstrate that I am an approachable educator who has the best interests of all students and families
at heart.
Finally, my Ontario Scholar Certificate; Certificate of French Immersion Study and Le Prix
DImmersion Certificates showcase my high level of academic achievement in the field of French as
a second language studies. It is my intention to pursue my educational career in the area of French
language studies. These certificates demonstrate my commitment to putting forth a full effort in all
that I do. They demonstrate my personal qualities of setting goals, aiming high and pursuing
excellence. These qualities speak to my abilities as a leader and a role model; they also align with my
philosophy of education as I am able to lead by example to show students that if they put forth the
effort, they can achieve anything they set their minds to.
Finally, I am very proud to have included a letter of reference from a local school Principal
which outlines the various roles I have undertaken within our dual track French/English public
school. This letter speaks to the time I have spent volunteering in the School Nutrition Program; for
which I undertook and received a Certificate from the Wellington-Dufferin Public Health Unit as a
Certified Food Handler. This letter highlights my role in working with students in the French
Immersion and Core French programs in order to support their academic pursuits. This letter
demonstrates that I am able to make time to volunteer within the community with the aim of helping
by the International Professional Development Association. It reads: teachers and school leaders
need to have a profound knowledge of learning. They need this knowledge in order to take care of
their own learning as professionals and that of their colleagues, staff and that of their pupils. In their
professional responsibility, they are in charge of providing learning opportunities and of creating a
supportive learning environment for all stakeholders. In this respect they are serving the core purpose
