Robert Hansen, Social Studies '12

Robert Hansen, Social Studies '12

I am a 2012 graduate of GVSU College of Education. I am currently teaching Social Studies grades 6-8 at a middle school in the west suburbs of Minneapolis. I think the biggest advantage I had entering the workforce with my Social Studies degree was the confidence that came with knowing I was fully prepared. Having been exposed to teaching opportunities in a variety of settings and having the skills to create authentic lessons for students with multiple learning styles accelerated my ability to successfully transition from student to classroom teacher. One of the things I did not anticipate happening, but that has since proven to be incredibly helpful, is the ongoing support I have received from my professors in the years since I have graduated!
