Welcome!
My name is Emily Lesch, and I’m currently a first year graduate student at the University of Illinois. I’m working on a Masters in Education with a teaching certification in secondary math education. I did my undergraduate studies at the University of Illinois as well, in mathematics and aviation.
Although I’ve always been interested in becoming a math teacher, my original career goal was to become a commercial pilot. After pursuing a career in aviation, I realized that my real passion is in education. I’ve been an instructor in aviation for the past three years, but now I hope to obtain a mathematics teaching position where I can further develop and utilize my teaching skills to help students reach their full potential in all arrays of education.
This portfolio was created to give you more insight into who I am and what I value as a future educator. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at elesch4@gmail.com.
Please view or download my resume if you would like a more complete view of my teaching and learning experiences.
