Guten Tag
Hello, my name is Jenaca and this is my first semester taking the MET program. I graduated last May with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Elementary Education. I was very interested in continuing my education and am very happy with my decision to pursue this masters program, as well as this course. As our world continues to change and grow with new technologies, I want to become more enriched in this field to enhance my knowledge for both inside and outside the classroom.

I am currently living in Germany with my fiance as he is a professional hockey player, and we have been fortunate enough to live around North America, as well as Europe for the last 2 years. I have been in contact with several international schools here so hopefully I will be able to teach english part time.

I hope everyone had a wonderful summer, I’m really looking forward to starting this course!!
Cheers!!

Hi Jenaca,
You are going to have a wonderful time traveling with the hockey scene! You will love the MET program..I have found the online learning to be engaging, challenging, and most of all supportive through the interactions of your colleagues and the instructors. Welcome!

Welcome Jenaca,
I too continued my education by jumping right into the MET program after graduating with my B.A in Linguistics. This is a great master’s program and I am sure you’ll enjoy it.
Best of luck and I look forward to working with you this term.

Hi, Jenaca.
I first went for my BSc (biology) as well, then specialized in secondary science in my Ed. degree. My first job, however, was second grade language arts! You just never know what you’ll end up doing. I was a bit of a latecomer to technology (only in university, really), but have embraced it as one of my strengths since. Looking forward to working with you.
As a hockey fan, I have to ask… who’s your fiance?

Hey Stephan,
Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you. My fiance is Carsen Germyn. He began his career with the Calgary Flames organization and has now been playing in Europe for 2 years. (Switzerland last year and Germany this year)
I look forward to working with you as well,
Cheers,
Jenaca
