My first day at school! I cried my first day of Kindergarten but it was okay because I had the sweetest teacher, Mrs. Lori. She is one of my biggest inspirations to this day.

At the beginning of sixth grade I meet my new teacher Mrs. Silvas. She inspires me to become a teacher and also learn valuable life skills that don't just apply to school. I enjoy elementary school so much and my teachers that I decide I want to teach there when I'm older.

My first year of high school! I take an introduction to child development class. I think I learned a lot about the development process for children and why it is so important to get them ahead. We had to take care of little fake babies and it was miserable so I decided I didn't want to teach the preschoolers.

My mom's friend has me shadow her inside the classroom because she told her that I wanted to be a teacher. It was a great experience and it only strengthened my love for being in the classroom.

I begin shadowing for ASU because of my courses. I am put inside of a 4th grade classroom because that is what I want to teach! I enjoy it very much.
