Wow...this is rather exciting for me! I consider myself computer illiterate so to learn new computer tech. stuff feels liberating! So, for my personal bio. I was born and raised in Corvallis, Oregon, am an "older than average student", have two grown children (18 and 23) and one grandchild (6 weeks). Man, I feel old now:}. I have always wanted to be a teacher however, had my first child right out of high school so I became a hairdresser instead (took less time and $). When my children got older I decided to go back to school and pursue my dream as well as prove to my children that an education is not only important but also attainable. I am one of few people in my family, I'm talking past and extended, to graduate high school and am the only one to ever go to college.
I would like to teach 3rd or 4th grade mostly so that I can teach multiple subjects.I lived in Las Vegas for about 7 months and was able to get some substitute teaching in grades kindergarten thru 5th and found that the 3rd and 4th graders were my favorite.However, I am unsure at the moment about teaching middle school level so therefore will be getting licensed for 3rd thru 8th and an endorsement in social studies in case I do middle school. Hobbies? Hmmmm....I love to read, especially when its something I'm interested in such as; education, history, biographies, cultural, mysteries, etc. I love that I live in an area that is 1 to 1.5 hours away from the coast, mountains and good shopping. I will try to upload a picture sometime this week.
