Hello, everyone! My name is Samantha A. At the moment, I am 20, and am a current student studying for an Associate's in Elementary Education with a Minor's in Special Education from the local community college, Calhoun. A little background about myself: I grew up overseas in Japan and England, most notably, and now, living in the south of the United States, have quite an advanced grasp on differences among cultures compared to others around me. I attended both the European and Japanese educational systems for short periods of time, before transferring to the U.S., where I became accomplished in numerous advanced level courses and clubs. In high-school I performed as a member of one of the top marching bands in the state of Alabama as a flutist, and was part of the National Latin Honor Society for two consecutive years.
