Hello, my career began when I was 6 years old. I use to line up all my stuffed animals and teach them everyday. My poor stuffed animals would get in trouble for just staying still. Then when I was 11, I started babysitting. After that, I had taken a class called Project Help. I was a teacher aide for a Kindergarten Teacher. I enjoyed working with those kids and making crafts. Then when I graduated from High School, I had no idea what to do with my life. My Dad called me and told me that I received a scholarship. So I enrolled in college and they asked me what my major was going to be. I didn't know what to say, the only thing I enjoyed doing was working with kids. So I became a teacher. I struggled, my junior year I became pregnant and had a hard time making the grade. But I graduated, and it only had taken one extra semester to do it. Then I packed my bags and my toddler and I moved to Texas. That was hard, the children that I taught, did not speak English, and I did not speak Spanish. But at the end of the year, they learned to speak English, and I failed at speaking Spanish. The only way I was able to teach them English was by songs and a lot of creative pictures. After that, I moved around. I taught Kindergarten and 2nd grade in Nevada for seven years. Finally, I was able to come back to Colorado. I taught 4th grade for one year and this will be my 5th year of teaching Kindergarten. |
