Hello and welcome to my webpage! My name is Libby Patterson and I am from Chanhassen, Mn. I go to the University of Mary and I am majoring in Elementary Education with a minor in Special Education. From an early age I knew being a teacher is what I wanted to do. I love the idea of helping others. My grandma was a teacher and always talks about the love she had for her students. I can always hear the passion in her voice when she talks about teaching and how much she misses it. She's given me advice throughout my college career and always wants to know what my teachers have me doing. My parents have always supported me and encouraged me to follow my dreams, and studying education is what that is.
Outside of school I have many other passions. Soccer has been a part of my life since the age of five. This sport is what shaped me into who I am today. It has taught me how to be a leader, a hard worker and a team member. Traveling is another interest I have. I have travelled to Spain, Portugal, Costa Rica and Sweden. Traveling has opened my eyes to different cultures and is something I want to continue. The University of Mary has given me the opportunity to experience an immense amount of possibilities. Please feel free to explore some more about what I have had the chance of participating in here at the University. |
