Faith and Fun After-School Teacher
-
Aug 2011 - Oct 2011
Worked as a teacher in a bilingual English/Spanish after-school program, "Centro BRILLA," developed through Seton Education Partners to provide a Catholic education for under-privileged children from kindergarten to second-grade. Helped develop and implement daily catechetical outlines for the four-day-a-week sessions. Fostered a relationship with the community surrounding St. Bernard Parish by International Blvd in Oakland. (NB: The short length of time I held this position was due to the small number of children enrolled, as this was the first year of Centro BRILLA's existence.) Show less
