Dear Parents and Guardians,
Hello! My name is Miss.Gust, and I am your childs student teacher in Keri Schiebelbeins classroom. I will be working in your childs class until the end of December. I am currently studying my after degree in Education at the University of Lethbridge. I have a background in ESL, Management and Marketing. As a student teacher I will be working closely with Keri Schiebelbein to plan and prepare lessons to teach to the class. I will also be assisting her during class. My background includes teaching ESL, managing the food and beverage industry, and travelling the world. I recently moved back to Lethbridge after living abroad for 2.5 years. After graduating from the University of Lethbridge with a bachelors degree in Marketing, I moved to Thailand to teach English for two years both full time and privately. While living abroad I worked at three different language centers and two large schools, both with over 7,000 students, and spent the past 8 months living in Australia at various farms learning a wide range of skills and gaining experience in horticulture and sustainable farming. Teaching and working with children is a joy to me, and I am so pleased to finally be able to work in a classroom full-time! Part of my goal as an educator is to spark curiosity in the minds of students. During my time in your childs class I hope to excite your child about the world of learning and broaden his or her academic interests. In addition, I am looking forward to getting to know your child and to be working with him or her through the rest of the semester!
