Hi everyone! My name is Susan, and I am a senior Elementary Education and Chinese double major. I was born in Moldova, a small country in Europe near Ukraine and Romania, and I moved to America when I was almost 4 years old. I have lived in California, Hawaii, and now Maryland! I have one younger brother who is 18 years old. My favorite hobbies include running, triathlons, drinking A LOT of tea, figure skating, reading, and exploring new places!
I also love working with children! I have been a tutor for three years now, and I tutor students ranging from 4th to 11th grade in various subjects. Additionally, I volunteer at an elementary school in my free time during the semester, and I work as a camp counselor during the summer. I hope to be an elementary school teacher one day.
I went to Chicago two years ago for another UMD alternative break trip and absolutely fell in love, so I decided to go back for a different cause. I love education and positively impacting the lives of children, and hope that I can help and inspire students to become the best they can be. I also hope to learn more about Chicago and the education system! I can't wait for this trip to start, and I believe it will be a very memorable and rewarding experience.
