PROFESSIONAL COACH
"The nice thing about teamwork is that you always have somebody on your side. Having been part of a championship team on every level of athletics I have competed in or coached in. I know that continuity is exactly what it takes to be winners. Coming together is the foundation, staying together is progress, and working together is success".

Professional Experience
"I suppose some only see the dream of impossible and cannot help but set lofty goals. Thats what sports is for many, a way to keep hope alive". Keith Travis II
athletic director
“The Athletic Director is vital to the success of the athletic program in the school. Athletes Building Character, meaning building a program that enhances both the physical and emotional life of students and coaches, is the single best way to promote the mission of the school and achieve success on and off the field.” -Keith L. Travis II
PERSONAL TRAINING
Self-motivation will occur if the student sees importance in the content and skills needed to be mastered as related to his or her present and future situation. In the area of physical education and health, the concept of motivation is of greater significance within the school curriculum due to its relevance to the student’s development of life-long physical health and well-being.
CLASSROOM MODEL
As a facilitator I must guide the student through the process of self-understanding and self-acceptance. This can be achieved using a variety of teaching strategies and methods. One strategy that has found widespread success is the T.E.S.A. (Teacher Expectation Student Achievement) program. Physical education significantly contributes to students well-being; therefore, it is an instructional priority for California schools and an integral part of our students educational experience (Glee Johnson; President, State Board of Education). The secondary physical education and health curriculum insures that public school students enjoy positive interpersonal relationships while gaining personal-self esteem and self worth. Recognize and evaluate the role of cooperation and positive interactions with others when participating in physical activity (CDE, High School Std. 3.9). My first area of concern being a public school teacher is to provide relevance to my students, while providing an opportunity for students to have self-realization and personal recognition of uniqueness and individualism.
TEAM SPORTS
​
As a coach/teacher, my primary role will be to serve as a facilitator of individual and group learning. This will be accomplished through the use of many different teaching techniques and methods. My approach primarily is based on the emphasis of active learning and self-motivation. To support the active learning process, the socialization process of the students will additionally require that I assume a very important leadership position in both daily behavior/conduct and professional classroom/environment. This leadership modeling includes consistency and professionalism regarding the day-to-day conduct of teaching duties within the school environment while actively motivating students to become responsible to their families, their environment, their futures, and their communities future.
