Hello, fellow Wikipedians. My name is Jarod. I am originally from Baltimore, Maryland , but currently live in Austin, Texas . My professional background is in language teaching and international education.
Education and Professional Background [ edit ] I received my B.A. in French from Claremont McKenna College in May 2008. I spent my junior year studying in Dakar , Sénégal and Marseille , France . I have taught at the New York Military Academy , Amherst Regional High School , Belchertown High School , and Strive Prep - RISE. I completed my semester of student teaching at Brighton High School in the Boston Public Schools . During the 2009-2010 school year, I completed my M.Ed. in Secondary Education - French at the Lynch School of Education at Boston College . In 2014, I graduated with a Master of Arts in the International Education Management program at Monterey Institute of International Studies . I currently work as an international student advisor for Texas Global at The University of Texas at Austin.
Most of my contributions to Wikipedia are gnome-like, using the random article link to find subs and make minor edits to articles. I try to restrict my more extensive editing and writing to Francophone culture, literature , critical theory and literary criticism , education , some philosophy , and articles about academia . Through my interests in comparative literature , language , and culture , I hope to branch out into African and Middle Eastern subjects. Articles that I have started include Senegambia Confederation , Them (novel) , Randy Steven Kraft , Baltimore Polytechnic Institute .
