Hello world!

December 10th, 2019

Hello, my name is DeQuana Moore and I am a senior at Longwood University. I am a Liberal Studies major with a concentration in Elementary Education with the goal of being a licensed elementary school teacher. Since I was in first grade I realized that I wanted to be a teacher because of the impact my teacher had on me. Through middle and high school I cemented my love for working with children by babysitting, volunteering, and tutoring. I believe that I have the drive to make a difference in students’ lives.

This is an ePortfolio created in English 400 for Dr. Guler. I have gathered a few of my works from over the semester to show what I have learned and accomplished. This class has helped me become a better writer and researcher. By completing Course Journals, I have been able to exercise my writing skills in response to different texts. The Common Good Project helped me become a better researcher and public speaker. To complete the project, I focused on presenting the correct data and conveying my passion through speaking on the topic.

Course Learning Outcomes (to address in your reflective essay)
