My name is Azra Imperial. I am a Chicago native, who has lived in the upper north side all my life. I am currently a Bradley University undergraduate, majoring in Early Childhood Education with an ESL endorsement. I have always known that I wanted to be a teacher and come from a family of people who work in schools. I have worked with children of all ages from the daycare level to the middle school ages in and out of the school setting.
I find that reading a good mystery book and looking up new ways to cook is a fantastic way to relax my mind. Those hobbies are activites I will go back to all the time to unwind.
But one of my other hobbies is traveling. I have traveled all over the United States and Internationally. My parents are big on getting back to nature so I have been backpacking since I was 9 months. The travel bug bit me and I have gone to National Parks in numerous states and even in Canada. I have traveled internationally to multiple countries including France, China and Cuba. Hope to add more to the list as it allows me to learn about culture and different countries that allows me to bring that cultural competence into the classroom.
