==My name is Abigail Stank, but I prefer to be called Abby. I'm the second child in a family with five kids. Being excited about the material that I am learning always helps to make learning easier. It helps if the material is something that I can see myself using in my lifetime. I love to be outdoors and active! I love to read and write. I write poetry. I like animals and kids. I'm a very social person. I want to know just about everything about my students. I want to know what they like and what they don’t like. I want to know about their home lives. I want to know how they learn best. I want to know what brings them to life… what they are passionate about. I love to meet new people, do new things and try new foods. I work at The Inn at Turkey Hill as a cook... and I love my job! ==

==Before Bloomsburg, I lived outside of Catawissa, which is about a ten minute drive from Bloomsburg. I actually commuted from there until this semester. I just moved to Bloomsburg in May. ==

At Bloomsburg, I am majoring in Secondary Education with a concentration in English.
==Right now, I’m most interested in getting done with school and getting a job that will actually pay my bills. I want to make the most of my last year in school at the same time though. == ==My favorite musical artist is The Newsboys. I hate narrowing down what I like to one favorate anything... because there is just so many kinds of music... I LOVE music! I'm all about widening my horizons! == ==I wouldn’t say that I have a favorite movie… I love movies that make me think, like Shutter Island and Inception. I like movies that seem realistic; that could actually happen in real life. I love funny movies too... but not "man humor" funny... actually FUNNY. I love to laugh... one of my nicknames in high school was Laugh-a-Lot. == ==Some things I like to do in my spare time is hang with my friends, read, write poetry, and anything outdoorsy or active. I have the desire to travel, but no money. =( ==

My favorite teachers were the ones who made class fun and useful at the same time; the teachers that I can respect.
==But I didn’t like classes in which we did busy work, didn’t get to meet our peers, the teacher lectured, and ones that were not useful to me. ==

In this class, I’m most excited about learning useful information!
==If there’s one thing you should know about me as a student, it’s that I like everything spelled out as far as assignments. I love the dynamics of our class! I'm going to miss these people. == ==If there’s one thing you should know about me in general, I love learning new things… and I want to travel the world. ==
