Hello, My name is Katherine Swiech! Here is a little bit about myself. I am 24 years old and I'm the eldest of 3. So growing up I had to set expectations for myself to be that role model that my younger siblings could look up to. Long story short, I grew up relatively early. I got my Associate's Degree of the Arts from Willaim Riley Harper College. The classes I attended was mostly early childhood and childhood education. I do plan on becoming an elementary teacher in the near future. I have been a camp counselor for 3 summers and was the best summers of my life! There I grew bonds with each child and was able to communicate well with each child's parent. The way I go about to interacting with children is to get to know each child differently. Cause each child has his or her own Read more personality.

I scheduled a 4:30 appointment with her, and a few hours before she cancelled and said something came up. We scheduled again for 10 the next morning, and at 9:45 or so she emailed and said she slept through her alarm.
