Hey Everybody,
I am Caitlyn, a freshman at BSU. I was born into a large family and was raised in the Boise area. I have never traveled too far from home. I can’t really complain about that, because I love it here. Idaho is a beautiful place. One thing that I am grateful for is the way my parents taught me to respect and value nature. Idaho has so many natural playgrounds that I’ve enjoyed exploring, like white water rafting, snowboarding, rock climbing, and even just going on a hike. But of course, one day I hope I will be in the position to travel the world and see other parts of nature.
I graduated from Eagle High School last year in 2015, and headed straight to college after that. I am majoring in English education. I had a writing teacher my senior year who had a way of making her students feel excited about even the smallest things. She used that tool to teach us in an incredible way, and I’ve decided I would like to try to do what she does. Not just in English, but in every way I possibly can to be able to help young people learn and grow.
I am eager to do well in this class and look forward to what everyone has to say and the feedback I receive this semester.
