Introduction I didn't always want to be a teacher. I wanted to be a vet. But that dream came to an end after I spent time working for one. I couldn't get over how much time was spent looking at what came out of the animals' rear-ends! After discovering that I held no interest in poo, I changed my major to nutrition (which is interesting, if you think about it. I went from one end to the other). I graduated from the University of MO-Columbia with a B.S. in Nutritional Sciences. Then I moved to Idaho. After months of searching, I found that I was either too over- or too under-qualified for every single position. So I went back to college. The world needs teachers, right? And having those three summer months off each year was quite an incentive. Several years, two kids, and a lot of hard work later, I finished up and graduated from ISU with a double major in Secondary Education and Biological Sciences. But wait, I wasn't done. I went back for more. I'm currently a part of MSU’s MSSE program (Master of Science in Science Education). I love learning. And I love teaching, which is why my motto is perfect for me: The more you know, the more you know you don't know.
Interests Lately I've been exploring a new passion- writing- and have recently completed and published my debut novel, Face the Music. Look for it on eBook retailers, or check out my Smashwords page! Also, find me on Facebook (Andrea K. Robbins) and Twitter (@andreakrobbins)
