After Graduation

One of my students suggested that I write about how I got started in this career. I decided in middle or high school to be a teacher of the deaf/hard of hearing because my younger brother is hard of hearing. After I graduated, I went to college at Augustana in Sioux Falls, SD and double majored in Deaf Education and Elementary Education. When I finished, I worked in Nebraska and during the summer I started my Masters degree in Deaf Education at Idaho State Univeristy. While getting my Masters, I moved and started teaching in Minnesota. My Masters degree took 3 summers to complete. Have you decided what you might like to do after you graduate?
