Introduction

(Erika) Hi! I am a teacher’s assistant working on my bachelor’s degree at UNT Dallas. I love the small community feeling at work, school, and home. I have a nine year old son who keeps me young! I hope to hear and learn many things from you. (Kathryn) I am a senior at UNT-Dallas and currently participating in student teaching. I will finally graduate May 14th of this year! It is very exciting to be able to put what I have learned in my courses into practice through my student teaching. I have already started to touch the lives of the students I work with each day and watching them grow as learners is one of the best feelings in the world. I am experiencing the importance of coworker relationships and how we can all work together with the outcome of successful students! I look forward to growing more as an educator this semester and also look forward to stepping into my future profession in just a few months.
