Ms. Kortni Seegmiller is currently a student teacher for Mr. Rob Bentley, geography teacher at Springville Junior High School.

Ms. Seegmiller wants to become a teacher because she wants to help teenagers realize how amazing the world and the people in it are. Ms. Seegmiller said “What could be better than hanging out with ninth graders all day and talking about the social sciences?”

Ms. Seegmiller is from Henderson, Nevada. She said, “It’s dry, hot, and brown, but it has really nice sunsets.” She is attending BYU and is taking some education classes, like Adolescent Development, Classroom Management, and Teaching students with disabilities.

Some interesting things about Ms. Seegmiller are she worked at the Bean Life Science Museum where she gave animal shows. She would get to show people snakes, lizards, frogs, tarantulas, turtles, and hissing cockroaches. She also speaks Spanish, and she likes to travel. She said “My dream vacation at the moment is Cuba.”
