About the Future Educators Association
The Future Educators Association was created when a group of transfer students in a Liberal Studies 300 class were seeking information regarding the credential programs offered at 爆料社区 and the overall process of becoming a Teacher. The idea of creating a club where future educators could meet up, ask questions, and connect with faculty and advisors, evolved out of several in class discussions and by the end of the semester the foundations of the club were set and spearheaded by Makenzie Dotinga and Marissa Lamonte. Since the club's humble beginnings in Fall 2018, the Future Educators Association has grown to over 200 members and has organized several events from fundraisers to discussion panels featuring guests from the School of Education as well as Credential Advisors.

in Visual Arts. She currently works as a Substitute Teacher and AVID Tutor. After
college, she aspires to be a high school history teacher. As a teacher, she hopes
to foster a positive environment for students to become future participants in democracy
and to have a strong understanding of history. Her vision for the FEA is to expand
and engage with all future teachers on campus to better serve the communities they
all come from.

a focus on creative arts. She currently works at a pottery studio, teaching art classes
to kids, and one day hopes to have a classroom of her own as a first grade teacher.
Alyssa has always loved working with children, and in the last few years she realized
that working in elementary education is her passion. She strongly believes that going
to school is a crucial part of a child鈥檚 development, and having a passionate teacher
is just as important. Alyssa believes that creating a safe space in a classroom is
essential for fostering an environment where all students feel valued and respected.
As a future educator, Alyssa is incredibly excited about the opportunity to work with
students and shape their educational journeys.

in Liberal Studies ESM, focusing on History/Social Sciences and pursuing a Geography
minor. After obtaining his credentials, he hopes to teach elementary or middle school
and obtain his master's degree. His influence to become an educator comes from his
mother, who has taught for over twenty years. Noah wants to teach to help students
grow, think critically, and make informed decisions throughout their lives. Noah became
a part of the team because of the help and knowledge the meetings gave him during
his first year. He is excited to help lead the club and make new connections with
future educators.
