About Me

My name is Jessica Poth. I am a senior at Michigan State University and am an Elementary Education major with a focus in Integrated Science. I am from Ann Arbor and went to Ann Arbor Huron High School. I will be starting my internship this next year in the Lansing area. I have had wonderful experiences working with first, second, and fifth graders throughout my time at Michigan State.
My mom is a seventh grade English teacher. She has inspired me to become a teacher. For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to be a teacher like my mom (just not English!) I would love to become a second or third grade teacher, since my own second and third teachers had a passion for their students and teaching. However, I have been told that I have the sense of humor to be successful as a middle school teacher as well. My goal as a teacher is to prepare my students by giving them the tools and knowledge they need to be successful in their lives. I hope to teach then to be passionate about learning as my teachers have done for me.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I also enjoy spending time being active outdoors, whether is it running, playing sports, or going to practice as a member of the Spartan Marching Band. I have also found racquetball to be a lot of fun, especially in the winter!
