C ounty Taylor CONGRATULATIONS Dan Nelson Educator What do you teach? of the Month I teach 5th grade at the Medford Middle School. How long have you been an educator? This will be my 31st year in education. Who was your favorite/best teacher when you were a student and why? Mrs. Sveum, who really had a positive influence on me. She was strict, yet also had a very patient demeanor on how she handled the class. I still look up to her teaching methods to this day, especially when I feel I am losing my patience! Why did you choose this profession? Spectrum Spectrum I really enjoyed science, and wanted to try to share that passion I had for the subject with students. I also wanted to give students opportunities to question and discover what the outdoors has to offer. BENEFIT SOLUTIONS BENEFIT SOLUTIONS Health and Life Insurance Experts What inspires you to continue as an educator? Everyday is a new possibility to have an impact on a student. To have a positive influence on a child, no matter how big or small is what keeps it rewarding. What is your favorite memory as an educator? My favorite memories would be taking students on outdoor adventures such as: cutting buckthorn, fishing during summer school, and also watching sharptail grouse at Pershing many years ago. Those outside the classroom events are what the students and teachers remember the most.
