Introductory Letter (NETS II)


HOLA CLASE! my name is Gennali Geron but you guys can call me Genna :). It was very good to meet you all last class! I am super excited to have fun on these MACs with you all EVERY Tuesday night. I am a native San Diegan, born and rasied around the southeast area of San Diego (national city/ spring valley area). Inititally, I went to Bethune elementary for kinder and 1st grade. I was then transfered to the new school that opened up in my neighborhood, Nye elementary. I finished elementery there and then was promoted to O'farrell Middle school, which became a charter school a couple of years before I went there. Then, for highschool, I went to the all famous MORSE High, which is notorious for it's ghetto nature. Great school however because it was a super diverse high school which taught us to mingle with many different cultures and backgrounds. Right after, I attended SDSU for about a year and after 3 years of being indecisive, I finally decided to become a teacher, which brings me here now to CSUSM! Out of all my school experiences, I would have to rate Highschool as the BEST 4 years of my life :)

I'd have to say that technology Is my life. Out of my daily schedule, I'd say that 8-10 hours of the day are devoted to technology in general. Whether it is my sidekick, which is probably 6 out of those 10, or my computer, which is probably the rest, or even my ipod, I'm always using technology almost every minute of my life. I'd also have to say that i'm a PC person only because I love gaming! GOOOOO Counter Strike Source! I have been using microsoft office '07 for a while. It was tough to get used to but I've found my way around. I love Technology, life is not life anymore these days without it!

I never read the mission statement before I decided to do education, but what really speaks to me is the teaching method, or the practices of the college of education. I love how teaching is VERY hands on and informational. It really helps future educators become profficient in the field of teaching.
