I am a senior at the University of Missouri in Columbia, Mo and I am majoring in Elementary Education. For seven years now, I have wanted to be teacher. Since I was 14-years-old, I have been teaching tennis to children between the ages of 4-12 years-old and it's been a great experience. I am the youngest of three girls and always wanted a little sister to look after. Being able to grow up teaching children of all ages new skills and lessons has given me a lot of practice with working with children, which will be very beneficial for my teaching career in the future. Being accepted into the Elementary Education has been a wonderful experience for me and I am looking extremely forward to continuously growing as a future educator.
