Who I am According to Facebook

This is my third year living and teaching in Chicago. I grew up in a small town in central Illinois, but I've moved consistently since I was 18, starting with the Quad Cities where I attended Augustana College and including Germany and South Korea.

After teaching in Busan, South Korea for four years, I felt confident as a teacher. I had learned a lot there and felt completely prepared walking in my first day at Horizon Science Academy Southwest to teach 6-8 grades social studies. I had no idea what I was in for! During the past three years, I have simultaneously grown as a teacher and learned how much I still need to learn. 

Outside of teaching, I am a runner and a (very) amateur painter, but most of my free time is spent cuddling up next to my 12 year old shih tzu Wicket.

  1. Sarah,
    It is nice to meet another avid dog mom. I spend time with my three year old husky mix, Lorelai as often as possible. I have always wanted to teach overseas and I can’t wait to see your teaching perspective over the course of this class!
