Brielle Patchell

I currently serve as a substitute teacher for the Cecil County Public School District, where I have held both long-term and short-term assignments as a classroom teacher, special education teacher, and paraprofessional. My experience primarily spans preschool through fifth grade, across general and special education settings. In my roles as a classroom and special education teacher, I am responsible for engaging with students and faculty, managing classroom behavior, implementing or developing lesson plans, and fostering a positive and supportive learning environment. Working in multiple schools throughout the district has allowed me to gain valuable experience with a diverse student population, each with unique learning needs.

As a paraprofessional, I provide one-on-one support to students, assisting with both behavioral and academic needs while ensuring continuous care and encouragement throughout the school day.

• As a produce stocker, my primary responsibility was to maintain and restock the fresh department. This included unloading and organizing pallets, stocking shelves, and ensuring that displays were clean, organized, and visually appealing. I regularly interacted with customers to provide assistance and answer questions, and collaborated closely with team members to ensure efficient workflow. Flexibility was essential in this role, as I was often called upon to support other departments within the store as needed.

• As a pool party coordinator, I was responsible for organizing and supervising children's birthday parties to ensure a fun, safe, and smooth experience for all guests. My duties included setting up and cleaning the party area, welcoming families and their guests, managing the event schedule, engaging with children in a positive and energetic manner, and maintaining clear communication with families to ensure their needs and expectations were met throughout their reserved time.

As a Youth Cheerleading Coach for Elkton Youth Football, I work with children ages 5 to 14, guiding them in both athletic and personal development. I began as a junior coach in high school and transitioned to head coach after graduation.

My responsibilities include choreographing age-appropriate routines, ensuring the safety and well-being of all participants, promoting teamwork, and supporting the growth of each athlete’s confidence and social skills. In addition to teaching cheerleading fundamentals, I emphasize character-building values such as responsibility, accountability, creativity, and friendship—helping young athletes grow both on and off the field.
