Before Bloomsburg, I lived in... Kelayres, PA.

At Bloomsburg, I am majoring in English / Secondary Education.

Right now, I'm most interested in attainting a professional point of view and pairing that with the types of pedagogy and classroom techniques that align with what I want to accomplish in my classroom someday.

My favorite musical artist is The Beatles.

My favorite movie is Garden State.

In my spare time, I love to read for fun, write songs, and go for walks.

WHen it comes to technology, I am most comfortable with Microsoft Word, Powerpoint, Email, Cellphones, Text Messaging, Taking cell phone pictures, taking cellphone video, and social networking.

My favorite teachers were the ones who talked WITH us, not "at" us, and saw as as individual people, not just students.

But I didn't like classes in which...teachers would tend to not be flexible, did not gain the interest of students who were not strong at the subject area and did not get the class involved/ have discussions.

In this class, I'm most nervous about finding out what I'm weak at in regards to teaching English. (But hopefully, I could work through it and make it a learning experience!)

In this class, I'm excited about ^^^^^ same answer as above.

If there's one thing you should know about me as a student, it's that...at first I don't always have confidence when tackling new ideas and projects...but once I get it down..I work hard at it.

If there's one thing you should know about me in general...it's that I am, most of the time, in a world of my own.
