University of Mary Study Abroad
Rome, Italy - May 2017 Through this experience I was able to learn about a wide variety of cultures. I also stayed in Europe after and traveled to 6 other countries. This helped me learn about people from all walks of life. It also helped me understand the difficulties EL students may face with learning in a language unfamiliar to them. Missouri River Educational Cooperative Youth Leader Being a youth leader at Mary Stark has helped me develop instructional strategies for working with students of diverse backgrounds. Chicago Mission Trip Summer 2012 I had the opportunity with two of my peers to put on and organize a week long day camp for youth in inner city Chicago. This experience, deeply motivated me to want to make a difference in lives of young people. This was the first time I was exposed to some of the trauma and difficulty kids face at a very young age.
