About Me My name is Clair Brown. I am currently a Sophomore at ODU, planning on majoring in Math Education. I am from Baltimore, MD. I love steamed crabs, Orioles, Ravens, and everything else involving Baltimore. I play soccer and softball. I love watching football, baseball, soccer, and basically any other sport. I love traveling. I go to the Caribbean almost every other summer. The farthest place I have been is Turkey. When I found out I was going there I wasn't very excited, but after going, I realized it was a trip of the life time. It was so different from anywhere I have been. I love being out on the water. My dream is to have a house on the water because I could just sit on a dock all day and just look at the water.

Teaching Philosophy Since I haven't had very much experience working in a classroom, I am not exactly sure what my "teaching philosophy" is. However after going to public school for all of grade school years, I have experienced many different kinds of teachers. My mom always says it was because I had great math teachers that made me want to be a math teacher. I think I have began to agree with her. A good teacher is someone who doesn't necessarily know everything about their subject, but someone who is very enthusiastic about it. For example, I am not great in math, but I enjoy doing math. Also a good teacher has to also be willing to help no matter what the situation is.

Bzeig001 (talk) 22:11, 14 September 2008 (UTC) Hi Clair! My name is Bethany and when I read your "About Me" I saw that you were from Baltimore. I just watched the show "Ace Of Cakes" and I was wondering if you had ever seen any of their creations or if you've ever even seen the building. Is it as popular in Baltimore as I think? I think it's great that you've been able to travel. I haven't and I always like hearing stories about travel. And once you have more experience in the teaching field, I'm sure you'll figure out your teaching philosophy. Don't rush it and just let it come to you. Nice to meet you and good luck pursuing your goals! - Bethany
