This Is Me

If you are reading this, then welcome. 

I wanted to make a quick blog to introduce myself. 

I am currently a Senior at the University of Montevallo, majoring in Elementary Education. All of my life I grew up around my Mother being a pre-school teacher, which I believe helped lead me into becoming a teacher. I get so much enjoyment out of watching students learn and get excited about it. I feel like it takes a special person to be a teacher and give their all to their students. I hope to be the teacher that makes learning fun and creates a fun, safe, and welcoming environment for the students.

I recently took a job as the In-charge Teacher at Creekview Elementary's after school care program. Working at the elementary school has helped me confirm that I am in the correct field and that I do want to become a teacher. I love all of the students that I have in the program (all 150 or so of them). I am excited to be finishing up my last year in school, while also juggling a job in my future field. This is going to be a long and difficult year, but I am so ready to see the finished product and officially call myself a teacher.

Stay tuned for my future blogs about using technology in the classroom!
