My name is Jennie Kinzler, and I am a student at Appalachian Bible College. I am currently studying in the Elementary Education program. I would love to be able to teach back at my Christian school were I graduated from and be able to teach there for a year or two and be the volleyball coach as well. I then want to be able to go over to Thailand and start a Christian school and orphanage with my husband. Here in the states, I would like to be able to teach either first or second grade, because I firmly believe that this is the most vital and important area of each child's life, and I want to be a part of that. When I was in the second grade, I had a teacher that made school so much fun. I am so glad that she took the time to invest in my life. I think this is where I get my wanting to teach second grade from! I want to be the teacher that everyone comes to with school and home issues. I want to be totally involved with my student's lives inside and outside of the classroom. I also want to be a teacher that can control the class without being scared to enforce punishment on those who need it. I also want to be able to communicate clearly the things that need to be said during each subject. I think technology will greatly help me in the next few years as I get ready to teach, and I also think that it will be greatly use when I teach in the classroom. We can now do all sorts of things in the class, and the children can be apart of the new technology that is coming out. I also think that by using technology, I can incorporate so many things into each lesson that I teach everyday.
