Greetings,
Welcome back parents and students to school year 2012-2013!
As for some parents and students who know me as part of the St Jude's Academy
staff from the previous school year as Teacher's Assistant, and this school
year I have the honor to work with Mr. Browning to be part of the Physical
Education teaching team.
As for my background, I have a Master of Science in
Education Major in Elementary Teaching from Medaille College, (Buffalo
State NY). On the other hand, my enthusiasm in sports came from my 11
years of competitive swimming career in the Philippines and was a part of the
National team as well.
Furthermore, I have been in the industry of health and
fitness for 9 years here in Toronto, working primarily as a Personal Trainer at various
gyms and with personal clients as well. That being mentioned, I would
like to be able to share my knowledge and skills to the students of St Jude's
Academy. I would like to emphasize and focus on the importance of keeping a
sound mind, and sound body.
As the first day of vigorous gym class, I introduced some
simple workout to the students, starting with basic cardio workout and
stretching. We also did some invigorating jump- squats, stationary lunges and
burpees, and what is gym class with out having fun at the end!
If you have any questions or suggestions please feel free
to contact me through my e-mail or see me at the school at your most convenient
time.
Respectfully,
Mr. Rojas
