My name is Brittany Joye and I am twenty two years old. I was born in San Diego, California on May 3rd, 1986. I grew up in Del Mar, California and lived in the same house until I was fourteen years old. I started high school at Torrey Pines before my family bought a home in Temecula, California. I graduated high school in 2004 from Temecula Valley High School. I then received my Bachelors of Art in Television and Broadcast Journalism from Chapman University. I graduated from Chapman in May 2008 and I am currently receiving my Multiple Subject Teaching Credential from Cal State San Marcos.
I am definitely a PC person, but would probably be a Mac person if I could afford to keep up with the technology. My boyfriend is a Mac person so I have become pretty confident in Mac usage. My dad is a big tech guy so I believe I have some natural tech ability passed down from him, but I know I still have a lot to learn. I took a Technology and Education class at Chapman so I have some familiarity with the subject matter. I am currently using Microsoft Office from 2003.
The part of the mission statement that I am most passionate about is the promotion of life-long learning. I am a huge advocate of learning, which is obviously why I am entering the education field, and I plan on learning for the rest of my life. I never want to be at a place in my life where I am not learning. I want to learn from my students while they are learning from me. I think that when teachers start thinking that their students are the only ones learning something new, both the student and the teacher suffer.

Being in the Multiple Subject program with you I admire your passion about life-long learning. You seem to be dedicated, which is something your students will be able to benefit from. Receiving your BA in Television & Broadcast Journalism sounds interesting. What made you choose teaching? I look forward to finishing out the program with you!
Hi Brittany! I agree with you when you said that when teachers stop learning the students are the ones that will suffer from it. I graduated from Murrieta Valley so we were high school rivals!
Hey Brittany, I'm also passionate about life-long learning, believing that we never stop learning, no matter how old we are. We don't have sitting in front of a teacher in school to be learning.
I like your usage of the comic book graphic on your pic...its cute!
