About Jackie Cular

I am a multi-talented, hard-working young professional. I am an impassioned teacher who works hard past school hours to advocate for students and communicate with parents and staff. I believe that all students can learn and I strive to ensure that all of the students I have the priviledge to work with do learn. I have led or taken part in numerous after school groups for supplemental learning, combining my content area knowledge in English and my expertise working with special education students. I also feel that it is important for teenagers to have positive role models to look up to, so I created a website that featured musicians who worked with charities or pursued social causes. First I created thecuttingedgeculture.com, which later became inthekeyofchange.com. The site features interviews with bands and other celebrities who are trying to help the greater good. The site also features a store of donated autograph band merch, who entired proceeds are donated by me to a music charity. My site has raised and donated over in the past two years for Music Drives Us. I share this site with students in order to create a more personal bond with students as well as emphasize the importance of having a social responsibility.
