My name is Casey Ange and I am currently in my third year at UW-Milwaukee. I am pursuing the major of Second Language Education for Early Childhood through Adolescence. Now, the most common response I get after mentioning my major is somewhere along the lines of, "Oh, do you speak Spanish?" The answer to that question is no, I have leaned a few words here and there, but I can't go beyond much more than "How are you?"Actually, I have a background in Korean and my goals for the future involve living in South Korea to teach English there. Another shocker, mainly due to the instability of North Korea. While I might be going down the unconventional route for this particular major, I am happy with where I am heading. Eventually, I hope that after a few years of teaching in Korea and building up my CALP in Korean, that I will be able to be translator for some type of company there.
Those are my plans in a nutshell. Are they subject to change? Of course, but for the time being, this is me!
Hey Casey! Your plans for the future sound amazing and intimidating and brave! Best of luck with everything :)
