This is Ms. Palmer’s second year of teaching French here at Musselman high school. She loves spending time with her students, and doing fun things with them.
Q: Why did you pick to teach French?
A: “Well, I took French for five years, middle school and high school. I’ve always loved it, and my teacher was really good.”
Q: Why did you pick to teach at musselman?
A: “Musselman was looking for teachers and reached out to me, so I applied, and it’s pretty close to where I live.”
Q: What was your backup, if not French Class?
A: “Well I went to college to teach Choir, but I didn’t particularly like it and figured it wasn’t for me, but as I said earlier, Musselman reached out to me.”
Q: What is your favorite thing to do with the students?
A: “I love having conversations with you guys, I love when you can share about your lives, things that you’re interested in. I love to play games, learn content through that avenue, as opposed to a textbook.”
Q: What is your favorite thing to do outside of school?
A: “I do enjoy making music, I’m trying to get back into that. This past semester I was in a choir outside of school, and I really enjoyed that. But it is kind of hard to have hobbies with this job.”
Q: Have you been to France? What was it like?
A: “I’ve gone to France three times, the most recent time was for a work trip. I love France, especially the culture. It was really cool going this last time, because I felt way more confident with my language skills.”
