About me

• I was born and raised in South Florida (Boca
  Raton).
• I am extremely athletic and enjoy going to the
  gym.
• I love to play basketball.
• The beach is my favorite place to relax and get a
  nice tan.
• I absolutely adore children.
• I have an extremely meticulous, organized,
  punctual and neat personality. My biggest
  obstacle Ive been trying to overcome is being a
  perfectionist with everything I do.
• When I first came to the University of Florida I
  was a nursing major and luckily realized my
  passion for teaching before it was too late.

Why teaching is important to me

• In my future classroom, I hope to be a positive
  role-model for my students. I believe teachers
  have an enormous effect on students, especially
  the way they conduct their classroom.
• Additionally, I want to make learning fun and
  enjoyable for the students. Some students never
  enjoy school and constantly complain, but I plan
  on using more hands-on activities and
  incorporating technology into the curriculum.

An interesting fact about me..

• Ever since I was a little girl, I played
  school with my friends and ALWAYS had to be the
  teacher. I had this enormous school set that fit
  perfectly under my bed that I had to order from a
  teachers magazine (basically I have been a huge
  nerd ever since I was seven years old). This
  desire to become a teacher has been a passion of
  mine for several years as you can see and I am so
  excited to finally have my own classroom!

In the next 5 years..

• Next year, I hope to get accepted to a Masters
  program for Childhood Education (hopefully in
  NYCat an inner city school).
• I will probably go back to South Florida after my
  Masters and teach at a public Elementary School
  (preferably 2nd grade).
• Hopefully, I will be married and have my first
  child by the time I am thirty.

Goals for this year

• To be successful in all of my classes.
• Apply to the different graduate programs early
  and hopefully get into them to have different
  options.
• Fit in my work schedule with my 17 credit work
  load for school.
