A Triple Threat: I'm a Teacher, a Student, and a Mom, So I Get It

In pursuing a Master's in education, the goal was to work as a SEIT -- Special Education Itinerant Teacher -- specifically because I like to work one-on-one with students, which in turn provides support for the family. Even as a student teacher, I volunteered my lunch time twice a week to help a 7th grade boy who was struggling in several subject areas. I want to be able to make a personal connection with a student so that I can best serve his/her individual needs. I have a BA in English fro... Read more
