In less than one week now, my cohort and I will embark on a trip to Germany. While we are there, we will take in the sights and sounds. More importantly, however, we will be inside schools, learning of the cultural differences that make schools from two countries so different. We will get to jump into the deep end of the pool in seeing how students are taught when they are not held to the same restrictions that are imposed over here in the United States. I am looking forward to learning and absorbing all I can while I am over there in the hope that I can translate what I learned into when I will have my own classroom.
Although I am certain that it has been said numerous times in the past, I am a firm believer that travel really does help to broaden the mind. I consider myself extremely lucky to have traveled out of the States to Israel last year. I met an amazing group of people, learned more in two weeks than I would have ever thought imaginable, and I feel that I became a changed man for the better. While I have yet to leave the States for Germany, I feel that the same has already begun to occur. I have met so many wonderful people, and I’m still in Buffalo! Time is winding down, and we will soon head out on a grand adventure. Please keep an eye out for my posts and those of my new friends. We’ll be on our way, and I’d love for you to come along.

AuthorHello everyone! My name is Dan, and I am an undergraduate in
the Elementary Education program at SUNY Buffalo State. My goal is to graduate
with a concentration in English, and move forward into the professional career
of teaching. I’m very excited to be taking this trip to Germany, and I can’t
wait to show you all of the incredible things that I’ll learn while I am there.
