About Me

My name is Amy Stiffler. I am a 28 year old student, wife, and mother of three boys. I am a student at Edinboro University.  I am a country girl that's not afraid to get dirty, but I also like to be girly. I enjoy hunting, four wheeling, and being outdoors. I have three dogs~two German shepherds and one beagle. I am passionate about my family and my faith.

I aspire to be a sixth grade teacher. I intend to provide my students with a fun and interesting learning environment. I love working with children and believe they should feel free to express themselves in creative ways that are true to themselves. I am excited to learn all I can about the different ways I can make the students as excited about learning as I am of teaching them. I believe when students are encouraged in a creative and interesting learning environment, they will become more involved and want to learn. We have all had classes we loved to go to because the teacher made things interesting and made us want to learn. We have also had those classes we dreaded because the teacher just talked at us and was very boring. My goal is to make a difference in the lives of my students. I don't just want to teach, I want to inspire my students.
