Drew Zailik's Educational Portfolio
Welcome to my Electronic Educational Portfolio!

Welcome! My name is Drew Zailik, and I am currently completing my Teaching Licensure Certification program at The College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia.
The purpose of this website is to share my experiences I have gained from Student Teaching. By navigating through the side-menu, you will find the following:
- William and Mary Student Teaching Competencies
- Virginia NCTE standards
- A Secondary-level English Content Master
- Pedagogical Planning (Lesson Plans, Units)
- Teaching Skills (Classroom Management, Assessments)
- Personal Reflections on Teaching
- Relevance to the INTASC Standards
You will also find some information about me! I will gladly share with you my hobbies and interests, so that you have a better understanding of who I am, and why I chose Teaching as a career.
Most importantly though, you will find discover the wondrous experience that has been Student-Teaching for me, where I will share with you the exciting process of my becoming a Teacher. You will discover my passion for literature, teaching, and building a positive and productive learning environment. I have attempted to interweave my two passions in life, teaching and surfing, into one extended metaphor that displays my love of the two.
Enjoy! Cheers!
