International Student Teaching- Sweden

After completing the first 11 weeks of my student teaching at Logan County High School in Russellville, Kentucky, I will spend the remaining 6 weeks of my semester in Linköping, Sweden. I will be participating in various History, Economics, and English classes at Birgittaskolan, a stunning local high school. I will have the opportunity to teach Swedish students and observe how the Scandinavian education system differs from our American methods and values. I will use this website to log all that I notice and encounter during my study abroad program! On this website you will be able to read about how I have prepared for my study abroad program, my first impressions of Sweden and the schools, Swedish cultural treasures, and my weekly activities and travels! Follow along with me to see how this experience shapes the future of my career as an educator and how I can use these experiences in my own future .
