Category of scholarship/fellowship:
Noyce Scholar

Name of Noyce institution:
University of Texas at Tyler

Current academic or teaching status:

School and school district:
Innovation Academy (Student Teaching)

Background:

I completed my Student Teaching at the Innovation Academy Charter School during the Spring semester of 2013. I taught a combined Math class of fifth and sixth grade students from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. I have also had the opportunity to work within two school districts with in grades ranging from 2nd grade to seniors. I will earn my Bachelor’s degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with an Emphasis in Mathematics in the Fall semester of 2013.

Why do you want to teach:

My main reason for wanting to become a teacher is to make a difference in education. I want to promote positive learning and prepare my students for the future. I want to be able to connect with each and every one of my students and show them how much I care.

Describe a memorable teaching experience:

Walking in the footsteps of a future educator, I believe each teaching experience is memorable. This is because I learn my strengths as well as my weaknesses from university facilitators as well as my mentor teacher during the UTeach program.

What does the Noyce program mean to you:

With the stress of working two jobs and attending school full-time, the Noyce program has benefited me a lot. It allowed me to focus more on my studies and increased my GPA as well.
