Hi. My name is Kelly Hillman. I am attending UW-Oshkosh and majoring in Elementary Education (PK-6). Education wasn't my first choice for a career. In 2002 I graduated with a double major in Marketing and Commercial Graphics. While working as a marketing consultant I began substituting as an early childhood teacher at Christian Community Child Center here in Oshkosh. It was during this time that I discovered how much I enjoyed teaching. I went back to school in 2006 and will finally graduate in May. I live in Oshkosh with my husband Rob. I also love to fish, travel and watch college football.
I think Pike was chosen for our team because she is an active participant in her learning. She goes out into the field and gathers her information and data in crazy ways. She doesn't just sit behind a desk and have others gather the info and data for her. I think that as teachers we need to "go out into the field" along with our students while they are learning. This helps students to feel motivated and more enthusiastic.
