Machu Picchu, Peru
¡Hola!
My name is Katharine Gaskey and I have spent the past five years as both a teacher and a language learner. I am currently working to complete my Masters of Teaching Languages at the University of Southern Mississippi. I love learning, traveling, and exploring other cultures so that I can bring that information back to my classroom. I am getting ready to begin my 5th year as a middle school Spanish teacher in Baltimore County, Maryland. Throughout my time in the MATL program, as a public school teacher, and a world traveler, I have learned a great deal and grown immensely as an educator.
As you look through my portfolio, please take the time to explore my professional growth and reflections on the past five years. The following pages will demonstrate my knowledge of my content, my abilities as a teacher, my commitment to my students, and my desire to be a life-long learner.
And please make sure to take a look at the pictures throughout my portfolio. They were all taken during my travels to Spanish-speaking countries while learning about and experiencing the language and culture I teach.
