Hi! My name is Christina Karklin. I'm in my senior year at Mount Saint Mary College. I'm a math major studying to become an elementary and special education teacher! Words cannot express how excited I am at the thought of having my own classroom. It has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember. I'm so close to this becoming a reality and this brings me such great joy! It feels like I have been waiting for this moment for a long time! I recently completed my student teaching in Goshen and it was a wonderful experience. I graduated from Goshen in 2010. To be back in the elementary school hallways that I walked through myself was so special to me. Student teaching in a second grade classroom then in a 3rd, 4th, and 5th special education classroom, confirmed for me that I am in the right field. I currently live in Goshen with my family and many pets. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, shopping, reading, and relaxing.
