Michelle Hoogterp
Welcome to my ePortfolio! Hello! Welcome to my digital portfolio. My name is Michelle Hoogterp and I am a recent graduate of Oakland University's Elementary Education program. I have managed this accomplishment while being a full time mom to two boys, and working two part time jobs. My oldest son, Wyatt, is 4 years old, and our youngest, Cole, is almost two. I love being a mom, and I know it will have an enormous impact on how I treat my students and manage my classroom. I realize that each child is unique and special. My job is to guide them towards discovering their full potential, and to do so in an environment where each one of them feels safe, accepted, and loved. I became a teacher because nothing makes me happier than working with children. I believe that seeing them grow, develop, and learn is a gift, which I am extremely proud to be apart of. I hope that you find everything you want to know about my philosophy on education, my teaching style, and my goals as an educator. |
