1. Elizabeth, I'm from Wickliffe Ohio, and i use the John Carroll email.. so esangdahl13
2. I like to be called Elizabeth, but Liz works....
3. Hopefully Id like to teach high school math, but we'll see.
4. I'm a nosey, but in a good way person, I'll try and help whoever, which helps with my tutoring jobs, and such...
5. I don't much of anything, just myself.
6. I tend to be very opinionated, and ask questions, and usually, Id learn best with hands on.
7. There isn't really anything special about me, or my learning style that is that important.
8. I think there might be a moment in school where i realized that school should be taken seriously, and i should put more effort in everything, and that's when I was in 5th grade, where I got all A's with the minimal effort I was putting in, but I saw how happy everyone else was.
9. With the education system now, we have teachers who for some reason, aren't doing their 100% at all times, they just barely teach the students, and then get upset when the students don't do well. That is my main concern with the educational system at this time.
10. We need to study how society views teachers, and how that effects how the teachers work, for example, most people think teachers are just glorified babysitters, which in most cases that's what they become. Lets try and change that.
11. What, in your opinion is the biggest problem with education at this point in time?

Service
My first day at service, was a blast. I noticed right away, that this wasn't my "type" of crowd. Which is fine, but i realized that i could not bring my baggage with me. I had to be completely open, and ready to handle whatever the kids i was tutoring were going to throw out at me. Even though i felt a little uncomfortable, I was pleasantly surprised to find out the girl i was going to help with science was really interested in becoming a lawyer, which is fantastic, she also at 17 has written 2! books. She told me that she wouldn't want to publish them yet, that they were hers for now. I cant wait to go back, next week.
