Guest Bio: My name is Chelsey Smith. I currently teach English 10 and Pre-AP English 10 at Nettleton High School. In December of 2017, I received my BSE in English from Arkansas State University, and just one month later I began teaching at Nettleton High School. I am currently attending the University of Tennessee in Knoxville for my Master of Science in Information Sciences degree. My goal is to help every student reach their full academic potential while introducing students to a wide variety of diverse literature and voices.
About This Episode: Walk in Jonesboro with a graduate student who’s currently teaching 10th grade English and loves introducing students to a wide variety of diverse books. The importance of not shying away from challenges, reaching out for help and being around positive people are also discussed and excellent resources are shared.
