About Mrs. Shaw:
I grew up in Colorado, USA which helped grow my passion for nature. I attended Iowa State University (Ames, Iowa, USA), receiving my Bachelors of Science in Genetics in 2006. I graduated with my Masters of Arts in Teaching in Science Education in 2008 also from Iowa State University. At university, I began working with international students, and fell in love with different cultures. This sparked my desire to teach overseas and to learn about other cultures.
