My name is John Hallock, and I'll be co-leading our experience with Janet. I'm a senior Accounting major from Gaithersburg, MD. I keep busy on campus as a member of the Club Baseball team, a member of the Sigma Chi Fraternity, and an employee at the Visitor Center. Aside from my extracurricular involvement, I have developed a hobby in pizza-making!
My sister, who is also my role model, influenced me to get involved with Alternative Breaks, as she participated on the AB New York - HIV/AIDS experience back when she attended the University of Maryland in 2009-2011. I was a participant for the AB Chicago - Urban Education experience last March, so I am thrilled to be able to lead the experience this year! I still keep in touch with everyone that participated on the experience last year, and I look forward to making a bunch of new friends who are share the same passion as me.
Over the course of this experience, I hope to learn more about the direction of public charter schools in the U.S. Also, I hope to learn why students, particularly those who reside under-served areas, find different teaching styles to be most effective.
John
