 * 5) a belief that all children can succeed in the correct environment
 * 6) the ability to collaborate and work with other teachers
 * 7) the ability to create an excellent rapport between myself, the parents,and the community.

Currently, I am the technology coach and the depot manager at Montauk Intermediate School. Montauk is one of 22 schools system wide participating in the iTeach/iLearn program. As Technology coach and depot manager, for the last three years I have been resposible for maintaining and keeping track of every computer in the building. Each teacher and students has a Dell XT or a Lenova X41 computer assigned to them. In addition, every classroom in the building has a functioning smart board. At the start of the program, I participated in training the teachers and ordering the equippment. The goal has been to create a 20th century learning enviornment for our students. In addition, the teachers and myself collaborated with Teadhing Matters on poetry, First Amendment, and projects.
