Student teaching at HCS has been such a surreal experience. I am loving the opportunity to teach alongside teachers that taught me and to be able to learn more from them as I spend my time in the classroom. I am a second semester Senior at Trinity Christian College with student teaching being my final step towards graduation. I have been preparing for this final semester of teaching for the last three and a half years of my college career and I can confidently say I have been well prepared for this thanks to Trinity’s extensive education program. Teaching with Jeana Otte has been the best learning experience I have had thus far. She has taught me how to show God’s love to each and every student that walk through the doors of HCS. She has taught me patience, perseverance, and confidence as I look towards stepping into my own classroom in the near future. I have built great relationships with my students and am certainly going to miss them when my time draws to a close for student teaching. Highland Christian shaped me into an individual that truly understands the value of Christian education and what a treasure that is for each person that goes through their program. As I look forward to my next steps post-graduation, I am excited at the thought of how God is going to lead me into a school of His choosing, all for His glory. I saw how He brought me back to HCS when I never even considered the possibility and I see how He has used this experience to continue to shape me and my love for teaching.
