Blog Post 1
Hi, my name is Mandy. I have grown up in a small town on the far west outskirts of Mobile, called Wilmer, Al. My family built a new house when I was born, and we have lived there ever since. I now attend South Alabama where I also reside. I had always grown up where South was just the local college and nothing more. I had always wanted to attend a college in north Alabama until my senior year of high school. I began speaking with some of the advisors from South and decided that for my major, it was the right place for me. I am now majoring in Elementary and Special Education. The new program at South allows me to be certified in both areas without a double major. I have always had a passion for learning which I feel is a must have trait for all future educators. Although a teacher's first job is to teach the child, the teacher is always actively learning as well. I also have a love for children and am looking forward to hopefully being a great influence on many children's lives.
I am the baby of two; I have one older sister who is currently in law school. My parents have been married for twenty-six years and were high school sweethearts. My family fully backs my decision to go into education, and my mother has always said I had "the heart if a teacher". I like to be involved. I am a Sunday school teacher, dance teacher, and the new member educator of Alpha Omicron Pi sorority on campus. I am not very technologically literate so I look forward to this course.
