sabatalo first interview

Communicating with others in general is a part of life, it teaches you how to listen and learn to others, to better the rest of society. In my case, I was presented the opportunity to work with a classmate named Hannah. What I learned about this interview is people have all different interest and a lot can be learned from these in class assignments. Hannah is senior here at Ohio University; Hannah is studying to become a physical education teacher, she is also interested in personal fitness, and nature. Physical education, personal fitness, and nature are what Hannah defines as her everyday life.

Teaching physical education at the elementary level has always been the career path Hannah has been looking for. Physical education provides students of all ages’ knowledge, skills, and values to help main promote personal fitness. Hannah stated that her roll as a physical education teacher is to promote fitness, instill knowledge and understanding of rules, concepts, and strategies of all recreational activities. In my opinion I feel that Hannah’s love for physical education comes from her love of personal fitness and outdoor recreation. “Nature” Therefore personal fitness has now become a hobby for Hannah. <<<

Next, personal fitness is where Hannah’s passion for becoming a physical education teacher came from. Hannah described personal fitness as having good health, eating right, working out on a daily basis, and have a good state of mental well being. Exercising at Ping has become a daily routine in Hannah’s life. Hannah explained to me that joining the PE club is the reason why she has become so involved in the workout room at Ping. The PE club is a club that raises money for athletic programs here at Ohio University. The club also is a lot like a elementary gym class; students gather together to take part in recreational activities to help promote personal fitness.

Also, Hannah said her love for nature comes from her dad. When she was a little girl her dad used to always take her camping, fishing, and hiking all throughout Ohio. Hannah said after she graduates that she would love to hike across the United States so she can learn more about nature. One of her main worries though is that mother nature continues to be polluted and ripped apart by others who don’t respect this earth. Last summer Hannah told me about how she was actively involved in cleaning the environment up. She is involved in a co-ed community service fraternity that takes an active approach to help cleaning up Athens to make it a better place for everyone. Her fraternity deals with all different kinds of issues including environmental and community outreach programs. “Fund raisers, food drives”

All in all Hannah is a twenty-one year old senior who is on pace to graduate early. As you can see Hannah is a extremely motivated girl who isn’t distracted by her outside peers. She is motivated to graduating early so she can follow her dream of becoming a PE teacher. But as I mentioned, her love for phys education, personal fitness and nature are what makes her so successful. There is no doubt in my mind that Hannah will be a extremely successful teacher in years to come.
