“I have known Elizabeth in her capacity as a Special Education Teacher a Middle School. I am a School Psychologist and the case manager for students in Elizabeth's classroom. Elizabeth immediately jumped into her role without hesitation and required little assistance, as she was extremely knowledgeable in the area of special education requirements and teaching practices! Her compassion and devotion to her students were evident. I know she will incorporate those some qualities as a Mercer County NJ Nanny. During the school year, Elizabeth volunteered to teach a self-contained classroom. She spent considerable time learning about her students' strengths and weaknesses by thoroughly reviewing each individualized education plan and bringing questions and ideas to me as the case manager. Elizabeth made a commitment to increase her students' reading ability and took the initiative to provide specialized reading instruction using Orton-Gillingham teaching practices. Not only did her students make improvements, but also many jumped one to two grade levels in reading in just eight months! I have observed Elizabeth's interactions with her students and she clearly has spent time getting to know them on a personal level, as they hold the highest regard for her. When faced with a student that has behavioral concerns, Elizabeth took it upon herself to create an individualized behavior plan to address the student's needs. She reaches out to parents when she has concerns and completely advocates for her students. In summary, Elizabeth has been a hard working individual who maintains the highest level of professionalism with her colleagues and dedication to her students. She is able to deliver appropriate and quality special education services. In my opinion, Elizabeth will be an asset to any employer!”
“Elizabeth worked in the self -contained classroom next door to my classroom. Every Friday, she consistently taught both her class and mine extremely important decoding skills using the Orton-Gillingham research-based practices. Her knowledge and use of structured, multi-sensory program is comprehensive, and the students have benefited from her knowledge and accomplished teaching techniques! Elizabeth was an important part of the collegial environment. Respected by both her colleagues and the administrative staff, she readily shared her expertise with co-workers and other professionals. She is a highly skilled and dedicated educator who is able to achieve success with students of diverse backgrounds, varying abilities, and challenging behavior! In the classroom, Elizabeth proactively teaches personal responsibility coupled with respect to create a positive and safe learning environment for her students. I would not hesitate to recommend Elizabeth as a Mercer County NJ Nanny!”
“I have known and worked with Liz for two years in her position as Language Arts teacher and I can confidently recommend her as a Mercer County NJ Nanny! She has repeatedly proven herself to be conscientious, highly skilled, and very caring! Liz participated in extensive teacher training in the area of teaching methodology for the learning disabled: Wilson Reading, Project Read and Orton Gillingham certification at the associate level. She has evaluated various software programs and trained teachers in the use of Co-writer, Write Out Loud and WYNN. She has taught both small group and larger classes and her students have demonstrated consistent progress in reading and writing. In addition to her teaching skills, Liz has volunteered to work on various committees at Newgrange such as Special Persons Day and Spring Events. She has been a valued member of our staff and I highly recommend her to any future employer!”
“At first, Liz and I worked together in the role of language arts teachers and for the past two years I have served as Program Coordinator for our summer program. Liz has repeatedly proven herself to be a conscientious and highly skilled educator who is able to achieve success with students of diverse backgrounds and varying abilities! She is able to employ a wide range of multi-sensory teaching techniques for remediation and is able to deliver effective instruction while creating a positive and safe environment for her students. Liz has a solid grasp of research-based practices for students with learning problems. Her knowledge and use of structured, multi-sensory programs is comprehensive. She participated in a 45-hour Associate Level Orton-Gillingham training course, completed almost 90 hours in a supervised practicum, and is almost finished her required readings of more than a dozen books on language based learning disabilities. Once completed, she will become certified at the Associate Level in Orton-Gillingham. Liz utilizes this knowledge to establish a classroom atmosphere that is conducive to learning and demands student engagement in improving their skills. Liz is an important part of the collegial environment at the Academy. Respected by both her colleagues and the administrative staff, she readily shares her expertise with co-workers and other professionals. Liz communicates concerns for her students in a fair and objective manner. She utilizes good judgment coupled with empathy and compassion, which will make her a great Mercer County NJ Nanny.

“My professional association with Liz has extended five years. We have worked closely on many occasions, during which times I have been able to observe her excellent qualities as a teacher! Liz holds degrees and certifications, which qualify her to teach students with a range of special education needs. She is always open to continued professional training and enjoys discussing students and educational programs with colleagues! She is aware of current research and is a stimulating co-worker. Continuous training in programs designed to aid the learning disabled student has made Liz exceptionally well trained in this field! Her students show marked progress well above the norm. She is an excellent diagnostician and never rests until she has her student set into a productive course of education. While setting high standards of excellence for herself and her students, she also projects a relaxed, warm, and cheerful attitude that puts her students at ease and promotes the trust so necessary for students struggling with their own doubts. These exceptional interpersonal, skills also make her popular with fellow teachers who readily join her for committee work as well as leisure. With her educational experience and personal skills, she will quickly become an asset as a Mercer County NJ Nanny!”
“I was a part of Liz’s class one year during her time of Language Arts and Reading instruction. Her methodology and expertise in the Orton-Gillingham reading program made a tremendous impact on her students! Many of her students I had known previously, and had observed in another classroom situation in which they did not achieve the same success as I witnessed when Liz was the teacher. Not only had their reading skills improved, so had their self-esteem. Liz has a wonderful rapport with her students and will be a terrific Mercer County NJ Nanny! The atmosphere within the classroom was full of warmth and security. She will be an asset wherever she is employed. She is a dedicated and hard working teacher who really is passionate about what she does!”
“Liz is a colleague who has worked closely with me over the past year as a special education teacher in my junior English classes. Liz's dedication, classroom engagement and confidence have proved invaluable to me! She has paid painstaking attention to the progress of each of the special education students in the two classes we share. On a daily basis, we meet or discuss by email the status of each student and she immediately cc's me with communication to the parent of any student who is remiss in handing in an assignment. She would show the same great communication skills as a Mercer County NJ Nanny! As well, I'm always impressed with how Liz begins each of these communiqués with a positive note about the student before she moves on to discussing any problematic behavior. In addition, Liz spends lunch periods and after school time helping students with work that they would not be able to do on their own. Parents have expressed over and over their appreciation for Liz's tenaciousness in following up and supporting these students. In addition, Liz is always actively engaged in classroom instruction. In the past, I have worked with special education teachers who passively sat at a table and offered what amounted to tutoring. Liz, on the other hand, has co-planned lessons with me, taught mini-lessons and helped me differentiate assignments. Additionally, when I am leading the lesson and Liz is acting as a support teacher, she never sits still. Instead, she moves around from table to table, quickly checking for understanding and offering assistance to all students, no matter their designation. Finally, I have benefited from the confidence that comes with Liz's experience in the classroom. During the past year we have had ongoing debates on how best to instruct high school students in English grammar. She and I have not always seen eye to eye, but I have appreciated how she has graciously asserted her opinion and backed this up with strategies and lesson plan ideas. She has nudged me out of my comfort zone at times while pushing me to reconsider some long-held beliefs, and for this I am grateful. I am confident Liz will be an asset to whoever is fortunate enough to hire her. I recommend her to you without hesitation!”
