64I am inquiring about employment for the multiple
65 subject STEM teacher position.
66
67During the summer of 2016, I organized a summer camp at Livermore
68Highschool for students of migrant workers. Erin and I taught 2 cohorts
69our challenge-bot robotics curriculum. Students kept their robots, and
70since then, we have been running robotics demos at the Livermore
71Innovation Fair.
72
73Since I am coming to professional education through
74a non-traditional route, I am not currently certificated. However,
75I would certainly go through the process. For the
76past 3.5 years, Gideon Hausner, a jewish day school for K-8 students
77has employed me. During that time, I have built relationships with
78students, parents, teachers and faculty.
79
80As a result, I have received many recommendation letters. Hopefully
81these letters can get me into a teaching position that supports me
82while I pursue more traditional certification. Please let me know
83if you would like to review these letters.
84
85I look forward to discussing my qualifications further and can
86be reached by email at
87\href{ozzloy@gmail.com}{\textcolor{color2}{ozzloy@gmail.com}}.
