Bronco Ink: Alumni Stories đź–‹
Meet Hannah Burns.
A Meaningful Experience: My most meaningful experience was meeting and talking to other teachers. I met some of my best friends in the teaching program, and I heavily rely on them now as an educator!
Applying My Degree: I apply what I learned in my teaching readers and teaching writers class almost every day. In particular, I have found that I LOVE writing conferences and try to do them with my students as often as I can.
What’s Next? Next up, I'm planning to get my master's in curriculum and instruction, and someday I would love to have a student teacher so I can share all of the amazing advice & education that I received when I was student teaching.
