A little about me and why I decided to become a teacher.
My
name is Jennifer White and I am so excited to be in my Junior year at
JSU. I currently have an Associate’s Degree in Office Administration, but
decided 2 years ago to change career paths and pursue a teaching degree.
I would like a career where I can make a difference. Watching my kids grow and
learn so much in school really made me think more about becoming a
teacher. I wanted to do something that had meaning.
When
the time was right I took the plunge and applied to JSU. At first I
thought the idea was a little wild since I am older but it has been a great
experience. I have met so many wonderful people. It has been a
crazy ride juggling a full time job, 3 kids, and school. I have enjoyed
my journey so far and am so excited to finally be in the Elementary Education Program.
I will be the first teacher in my family. I love working with children
and cannot wait to see what this journey has in store for me.
