About Me

My name is Haley Riviere. I am a sophomore at The University of South Alabama. I graduated in 2009 from Alma Bryant High School and I am from Grand Bay Alabama. I have two younger brothers who are in the 7th and 9th grade. I live with my parents and my brothers and our three dogs. I enjoy reading, cooking, and swimming. I am a full time student as well as a server at Cracker Barrel.
I am majoring in elementary education and I hope to teach upper elementary. I chose to pursue a career in teaching when I was very young. This was partly because of the positive influence and inspiration to succeed that I received from my elementary teachers. Also because I feel that education is a very important aspect in developing as a person and every child should receive an exceptional education. I chose Elementary as opposed to secondary education because I feel that I connect better with younger students and would prefer to teach an elementary class.
