I have taken classes in successful teaching strategies, as I was enrolled in the Education program at my college, as well as learning about teaching students with Disabilities.

I've thoroughly enjoyed integrating the many fields of study in a liberal arts education into my degree. This past year, I received the opportunity to spend six months in Ecuador as an intern with Paz y Esperanza (Peace and Hope International). Because Ecuador is a Spanish-speaking country, I rapidly developed my Spanish abilities. Interestingly enough, I greatly disliked Spanish classes w... Read more

I enjoy rising to the challenge of making learning enjoyable for those students who struggle. I also enjoy enriching the curriculum for learners who seek challenges! Strength in the core curriculum and how to make it understandable... Read more
