Brand New English Teacher, Ms. Asay

Submitted by jennifer.dunn on

We want to welcome a fabulous new teacher in the English department. Her name is Ms. Asay and she is a book-loving seventh grade Language Arts teacher!

Ms. Asay started here at Springville Junior High this school year. She said she chose to teach English because she loves reading. She says, “I would often be caught reading rather than doing chores or homework.” She wanted to be a librarian until she decided she would rather have interactions with students. This led to her changing her English degree to an English teaching degree. Her favorite part of teaching is the students. She said, “They are so smart and funny!” She especially  likes when students are able to help one another understand.Her students feel similar about her.  

Melody Anderson, a seventh grader in Ms. Asay’s class, said, “She explains everything,” she added, “she makes sure we understand it and she explains it if we don’t.” Novalee Espinoza’s favorite thing about Ms. Asay is that she lets them do lots of grouping. 

Other teachers in the English department like her too! Ms. McBride said, “Ms. Asay is really nice. She cares about her students.” She also mentioned that Ms. Asay has great ideas for fun learning.

Ms. Miley said, “She’s easy to get along with.” When asked what makes Ms. Asay a good English teacher she said, “She works hard. She’s nice to her students. She prepares  good lessons.”

Those three lines sum it up; Ms. Asay is a great addition to the English staff and an awesome teacher!
