I graduated from Colgate University in May with a Biology major and Educational Studies minor. I was interested in the sciences and never imagined I'd be more passionate about anything else until I found educational studies. Most of the educational studies courses I took required field observation hours so I have over 50 observation hours in elementary, middle and high school classrooms. I used field observations to make sense of the theories I learned in the courses. Therefore, I have a good... Read more

I have hosted class study sessions to help fellow students prepare for exams. It has always been my goal in a group study session to ensure that everybody was up to speed on the material. Nothing is more satisf... Read more

Dear Students and Parents, When I was in school, I had favorite teachers.
