Stephanie
English and History
I am passionate about learning and personal growth. I often enroll in online classes, read, and listen to podcasts/audiobooks to gain knowledge on various topics. I think this passion translates into being a good teacher, as well. During high school, I volunteered at the local elementary school tutoring second graders who struggled in math and reading. Teachers are often unable to provide as much one-on-one assistance as they would like, and I was able to assist more in this role. In law... Read more
