What Teachers Make by Taylor Mali

It's only the beginning...

Hello all! My semester at WSU has gotten off to a fantastic start but most importantly so has my placement at a Wichita area school! I love my CT. She has the best relationship with her students, a fine line between being authoritative and friendly. I am observing Honors English Freshman. I was lucky enough to be invited into her classroom on the first day the class met and got to experience and observe her first day practices. We are wrapping up some getting-to-know you exercises and will be beginning The Odyssey soon. She seems very willing to let me teach some lessons and co-teach as well. I look forward to this semester being one of growth and experience. I have not had a large amount of experience in teaching thus far and am excited about becoming more familiarized and comfortable in teaching and running a classroom. My CT seems like a fantastic teacher to be placed with for the whole school year and I look forward to working with her and with these kids all year!

All About Me!

Hi everyone! My name is Lauren Curley. I am almost 23 years old and I am in my fifth year at Wichita State University as a double major in Secondary English Education and English. I am finishing up my last year in school and look forward to having my own classroom and beginning my professional career. When I'm not studying or honing my teaching skills, I enjoy reading (obviously), watching movies and TV shows (all types), cooking, and spending time with my friends and family. In the future I hope to go on and get my Master's Degree in American Literature and possibly even my Ph.D, should I feel that brave. Stay tuned in for updates on my explorations in the classroom!
