Hallie Pruitt

Department of Teaching and Learning

Award for Spring Student Teacher

Hallie demonstrated a passion and excitement for teaching long before student teaching began. She ambitiously requested two very different placements in order to gain the most from the student-teaching experience. She knew this came with challenges, and has risen to the occasion each time. Hallie is motivated, organized, and eager to learn and grow. She is proactive with her many responsibilities and is very professional in all her communications. She has easily built rapport with the students, demonstrating a high level of professionalism in all interactions, and her Clinical Teachers have both commented on how much she adds to their classrooms.
