Introduction
Hello, my name is Taylor Adkins. I am an Elementary Education major as well as a wife and mother. I have a rotten 14 month old little boy and a silver Labrador retriever named Ruger. I began my college career straight out of high school however I did not start out pursuing a degree in education; I actually started in nursing. After 2 years I had a hard realization that I was not meant to be a nurse, I then switched to education and I have loved every minute of it. I had always wanted to be a teacher but I allowed family to influence my decision ultimately leading me to take 2 years of nursing school. I am now a senior and will be student teaching in the Spring. I hope to gain an understanding on how to use music in my classroom also incorporating non typical methods and fun into the lessons.I have very little musical background and because of this I am slightly nervous for this class. Here is to a great semester :)

Hi Taylor,
ReplyDeleteMy family wanted me to be a doctor--I'm almost a doctor of music! That counts, right? :) Welcome to MUS 105! A lot of students have the same concern about their musical ability. I promise that you will be fine. If you need help, email or call--that's what I'm here for! Take care. You have a beautiful family!
Thank you so much! I look forward to this semester :)
DeleteWe have similar experiences -- my family also tried to influence me to go to nursing school, except I just didn't go at all. Now many years later, I'm starting over, but I'm very excited about the teaching profession. Good luck!
