Mrs. Truong
Who is Mrs. Truong? Let's find out shall we...
In 2008 I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in liberal arts from Texas State University with a major in English and a minor in history. My teaching certifications include English Language Arts and Reading (Grades 4-8 and 8-12), English as a Second Language, and Generalist (Early Childhood-6). I have taught professionally at Reagan High School, MacArthur High School, as well as Hardy Oak Elementary.
The way that I approach the classroom is summarized best in my teaching philosophy:
Knowledge is attainable to all that enter into my classroom. My role as a teacher is to facilitate learning in the most successful format for each community of learners. So in turn, instruction comes from myself, fellow students, as well as from the world within which we live. My greatest aspiration is to inspire my students to realize their own potential. This self empowerment makes the pupil an active participant in their pursuit of knowledge, thus creating a lifelong learner.
My passion lies in teaching English and Reading (especially for 8th graders). In this year long journey together I hope to ignite a passion for reading, writing, and always striving for your personal best.
