Hi everyone!

I’m Julia! I’m an Elementary Education major. I’ll be graduating in December and I cannot wait. Student teaching will happen this upcoming September and I’ll be in either a third- or fourth-grade classroom. I am so excited to start this!

Interests (in no particular order):

  • Rom-Coms
  • 3D Printing
  • Music (Fun fact: I can sing any song that plays on the radio. My commute to UNE is 45 minutes and the radio gets played a lot.)

Hobbies (in no particular order):

  • Reading
    • My favorite books are anything by Nicholas Sparks and All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr.
  • Cooking (I make a great lasagna!)
  • 3D Printing
  • Hiking
  • Watching TV
    • Grey’s Anatomy
    • Blue Bloods
    • Blindspot
    • The Bachelor/Bachelorette franchise
    • Law and Order: SVU

Since I am graduating in December, I’ll be looking for a long-term substitute position in K-8, but hopefully in third- or fourth-grade! After that, I’ll apply for full-time teaching positions. It’s definitely intimidating to be at this point in life, but I am also very excited to begin this process. Fingers crossed!

I have taken an online class before. It was a few years ago and it was an Education class at USM that dealt with storytelling and writing our own children’s book. I loved my story and I’ve been thinking about trying to publish it for some time now. Maybe that will be a summer goal!

Looking forward to this class and how to bring it into my future teaching career!
