Hello Everyone!
My name is Andrea Traver, and I am currently in my second year at Grand Valley. I'm 19 and was born and raised in Farmington Hills, which is about forty five minutes to an hour NW of Detroit, Michigan.
I am the youngest of three, and the only girl. Upon completing my time here at Grand Valley, roughly in two and a half years (2012, hopefully!), I will have gained a B.A degree in Group Social Studies with a concentration in education, and an influence in history. I also hope to complete a minor in Spanish and to obtain my ESL (English as a Second Language) certification. After which, I plan on traveling to Africa to teach, and then coming home to obtain my masters and another job in the states.
As of right now, I am employed by Grand Valley as a Reading Tutor at Stocking Elementary, where I spend much of my time enjoying the company of first through third graders, and the occasional time at recess with whomever chooses to walk around with me. This is my second year at Stocking, and I absolutely love it.
Unlike my other two team members, I have not been part of the GVSU marching band, however, I was part of my high school marching band as a member of the Flag Corps. Among many other things, I enjoy playing music (piano and guitar) and singing, along with reading, watching movies, medieval history and working on cars.
From this blog, I hope to obtain a greater skill for organization, and to gain more knowledge of history topics. Agreeing with Jamie, I also hope we can work in Monty Python references, as his work is hilarious and ridiculous.
I'm excited to see where this blog goes, and what kind of interesting things we can dig up!
