The Journey Begins
Published by inspirededucator12
I am a retired educator, on a journey to inspire anyone who has an interest in improving education systems. Through this medium I have found a non-threatening space to learn, and to share successful education and teaching techniques. I will invite successful educators to share their winning strategies. Who am I? I am Claire Spence. I successfully served in the Jamaican education and training sectors employed to the Jamaican and United States Governments, and along the journey, I served at all levels of the education system; from early childhood to the tertiary level. I successfully pioneered the following in the early reading sector in Jamaica: Summer Reading Camp for at-risk children; Early Grade Reading Assessment Instruments; Gender manual for primary schools; Lesson Plan Manuals for Grades 1-3; and implementation of Parents' Places. I served as a highly-respected Trainer and Consultant in Jamaica, the U.S.A. and the Caribbean region. I also assisted US Contractors and NGOs to implement successful education projects. I served in several management positions, and amassed a considerable wealth of knowledge, and experience. I am competent in the areas of curriculum development, project management, problem solving, general management, and human resource management. Through https://inspirededucator.blog I am using some of my retirement hours to share what is on my mind. So, let us share this exciting journey....... View all posts by inspirededucator12

Today, March 7, 2018 is the beginning of something I always wanted to do. I always wished I had a space to share ideas about education. I wanted to share in a space that is accessible to many persons. I am not too interested in what so called ‘learned’ people believe. As a veteran educator, I am not too concerned about theories. I am convinced that there are some common-sense practices that will work anywhere in the world. Many successful people in this world were once children, who were assisted in their learning by their literate and illiterate parents. These parents have good hearts. They know the benefit of a good, solid education. Many have used common-sense solutions. I know many of these successful parents and I will share how they invested their time, resources, connections and love to educate their children. They have used public and private resources and lots of goodwill. Inspirededucator12 will inspire you in simple and unconventional ways. Talk soon ………

Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
The words in your post seem to be running off the screen in Ie.
I’m not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know.
The design look great though! Hope you get the issue solved soon.
Thanks http://chilp.it/1ebf933
