A pre-teacher full of gratitude

My status as a student is beginning today. This is round two of the student status because I am a "serious graduate student!" I went to orientation yesterday and this MAT program is going to be a tough one. Getting just my Elementary Education Masters isn't enough, I need to add Special Education to the mix and that my friends, is what will make this a lot tougher. I really thought about teaching Special Education and I think it's what I am supposed to do. It's my life calling and I need to follow the calling.

I think my program is going to fabulous. All my classes will be small and the professors are really there to help me succeed and become the best teacher possible. I love the Westminster College. It has such a homey, warm place to be. Everyone is so nice, so helpful and so excited for the school year. I believe that it takes a village to raise a child, and I think this also applies to teaching. I think it takes a village to teach children and I feel like I get that at Westminster. Everyone is working to help you towards your end of goal of being an amazing, highly-qualified, and well-sought out teacher.

I am excited to start this process of becoming a qualified teacher!

So today Jenna's grateful for the chance to learn how to become a qualified, confident and amazing elementary school or Special Education teacher. I am grateful to start this journey towards my future career =).
