My name is Henry Gonzalez. I was born in Guatemala and came to the United States thirteen years ago. Im 25 years old and currently attend UH-Downtown to become a math high school teacher. Being part of the UHD Literacy Project has been a learning experience for me as a future educator. It made me realize that students want to be heard; they want to express what they feel and enjoy writing about their personal life experiences. It expanded my knowledge in other content areas and provided more experiences and knowledge to share with future generations. Im really excited to be in the field and advocate students to make smart decisions in their academic journey. Maria Gonzalez was born in Houston, Texas. She considers herself very family oriented and dedicated to her goals in life. Maria decided to major in education because she enjoys being around children. She has an immense interest in childhood and human development, the way it works and how it all comes together captivates her. Envisioning the idea of assisting and guiding young minds into becoming lawyers, doctors, nurses, or professionals brings a sense of desire to share her knowledge with the future. Maria is determined to accomplish her goal of becoming an educator who brings knowledge, creativity, and connects with students.
