Welcome! You can call me Ms. Shin (like Ms.Shin Accomplished), and I'm thrilled to be working with you this year. I was born and raised in the SF Valley, but I graduated from Grinnell College (in Iowa) with a Bachelor's in Political Science and a concentration in Policy Studies. I received my teaching credential from Loyola Marymount University, and I am a 2018 Teach for America (TFA) Corps Member.
I speak English and Korean fluently, some Spanish, and a bit of German. I love to learn languages, so if you'd like to speak with me in another language, please do!
I've been to South Korea, Japan, England, Switzerland, Belgium, France, Turkey, Italy, Spain, Germany, Romania, Hungary, Luxembourg, Mexico, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and likely a few more European countries than I've listed. I enjoy traveling and eating food from all over the world. Due to the ongoing pandemic, I won't be traveling any time soon, but here are some pictures from my travels!
