My name is Jessica Patterson. I am a 2008 graduate of Bemidji State University. Since coming to Onamia in 2009 I have had the opportunity to teach various grade levels, from Kindergarten to 8th grade. I also enjoy teaching classes after school and in the summer. I truly love what I do and enjoy devoting my energy to the students at Onamia. My favorite thing about teaching English is watching students finish novels.
"...the best thing they can do is to teach their children to love challenges, be intrigued by mistakes, enjoy effort, and keep on learning."
