About

After getting my Associate's Degree in Early Childhood Education, I decided to go for my Bachelor's Degree. I want to become a Middle School Teacher. I wish to be one of the best Social Science teachers and also a wonderful Spanish teacher. My experience as an International Student has helped me understand the best strategies to learn a new language and to get attention and interest from students.
Nowadays, I am a full-time student and I am working part-time as a teacher assistant at The Phyllis and Richard Leet Center for Children and Families.

Career goal

Graduate school interests

After graduating I want to spend some time as a teacher but I will also be seeking for a Master's Degree.
