About Me

Hello All and Welcome,
        My name is Blake Trent. I am 22 years old, from Kingsport, TN and a Capricorn. This is my blog for my Theory and Practice in Teacher Education 486 course. I have never done a regular blog, so I expect this to be an interesting learning experience. I am taking this course in the hopes of becoming slightly more well acquainted with several technologies that may make teaching my prospective students easier. I plan to begin teaching 9th and 10th grade English at Fulton High School in Knoxville, Tennessee as part of my internship at the University of Tennessee. I am currently in the midst of a very fast paced and exciting time in my life and I am both nervous and excited about how everything is going.
      I enjoy plenty of hobbies, mostly sports oriented hobbies. I am a big fan of basketball, football, and snowboarding. I love to read and learn new things about the world. I spend much of my time contemplating on different things, which is both good and bad depending on the particular contemplation. I play video games fairly often, yet not anything like I used to as a child. I feel pretty useless if I sit around for too long and I am more often than not looking to better myself in some way or another. This class is a byproduct of that very endeavor. Hopefully more about myself will be conveyed as this blog continues.
