In just 2 short months, I will be traveling to South Africa with some of my fellow classmates and I couldn't be more excited. My love for traveling is something my parents instilled in me at a young age and the experiences I've had abroad have been some of my favorite and most memorable ones. I'm so lucky to be in a program at USD that pushes us to leap outside of the comfort of our own home to explore the world around us. I'm super excited to go on this trip and broaden my knowledge of different education systems and hear from other educators their experiences in the field of education. I have so much to learn about diverse learners and the education system in general, and being able to do that in South Africa I know will be an amazing experience.
I'm really looking forward to embarking on this journey with my classmates and fellow changemakers. The experiences we will share together, the knowledge we will have gained, and the time spent in South Africa surrounded by eager learners is something I know I will cherish for a long time. Traveling in general forces us to open our minds and hearts to new experiences and allows us to do a bit of soul searching as well. This trip couldn't come any sooner and I will definitely be counting down the days!

Study AbroadThis June I have gotten the opportunity to travel to South Africa to observe policies and practices of the education systems. I will be working with students and educators from the U.S. and South Africa on a Changemaker Project. Our hope is to bring awareness to the different types of diverse learners in the U.S., South Africa and all over. Archives
