My name is Mike Phillips and I am currently a senior at Lock Haven University. My course of study is Health and Physical Education.
I want to be a teacher because I want to touch children’s lives. I want to encourage them to do their very best and be the best person they can be. I want to help all children learn whether they are gifted or have a learning disability.
I really do not have any technology experience. I can use word documents and the internet. After that it pretty much ends. I am willing to learn even though it may be a struggle. I realize how important it is to know technology.
I have taken two on-line courses. I took theatre in the fall of 2009 and I just took a math course this past summer. I really liked taking both classes on line because of their flexibility. I was able to do the work for the class in my spare time. The only thing I didn’t like was that sometime I would procrastinate and wait until the last minute to get things done. This course was offered over the summer and I did consider taking it. However, I worked two jobs this past summer and had already registered to take the math class. I thought it might be too much for me and I wanted to make sure I did well in both classes. So, I ended up taking the math in the summer on-line and keeping this one in my fall schedule.
An interesting fact about myself is that I made it to states for track my junoir and senior year in high school. I made it both years in the long jump and just my senior year for the 110 meter hurdles. I used to run for Lock Haven my freshman and sophmore year and I took 8th place at psac's my freshman year in the decathlon.
