Hello, my name is Grace. I hope to become a middle grades Spanish teacher. It's rough to reflect back to our middle school days, but I specifically remember being in such a confused state about who I was. Middle school is such a crucial changing point for students because it's when they first begin to try and figure out who they are as a person. With that being said, they truly need adults to lean on, confide in, and help guide them. I want to be there as a teacher that can help influence them to be the best version themselves. I currently work for the Reach for the Stars Program at Baker Elementary School in which I get to help students learn Spanish. Spanish will always hold a very special place in my heart and I hope to share that with my future students one day.
