Angela Anderson

Hafa Adai! My name is Angela Anderson, and I am from Pago Bay. I began teaching in 2009 and have dedicated my entire career to Inalahan Middle School. I have always taught 7th grade Language Arts, but more recently I have become a combo teacher, working with both 6th and 8th grade students as well. I am also very involved in coordinating school activities and served as a yearbook advisor for many years. I truly enjoy creating memorable experiences and making school enjoyable for students both in and out of the classroom. After all these years, I still genuinely love teaching middle school students and ensuring they have a memorable experience at IMS. Teaching definitely keeps me feeling both young and old at the same time!

But I also have other teaching experiences in early childhood special education, teaching in 1st and 2nd grade. I have been in HSTES for about 14 years now. But, I have been a teacher for about 26 years and still enjoy being a teacher.

Final Farewell - Grace Claros

Thank you, Dr. Rivera, for this wonderful opportunity to be creative through technology. I enjoyed the first day with the read alouds at the public library with the kids even though I wasn’t physically there, I felt their excitement. I also enjoyed the time I had with my team creating this blog and deciding on what recipes to do. It was amazing to see our project come to fruition. The other group did a phenomenal job as well. High fives all around. I can’t wait to have another opportunity to have a class with you again, Dr. Rivera!

Blogs, Bonds, and Bright Beginnings

Together, we navigated every lesson and created meaningful ESL class blogs. Here’s to our final moment—and to countless new beginnings ahead!

Final Farewell Post- R-Lynn Tablan 8.30,25

I really enjoyed taking this class. It was a great refresher since my last Educational Technology course. I’ve learned so many new things, such as how to create a blog and how to incorporate it into my classroom.

I especially enjoyed working with my team, who brought so many wonderful ideas to the table. Our project went smoothly thanks to our teamwork. Being able to meet several times and practice our presentation also contributed to our success. Thank you, ladies—you are all amazing!

I also enjoyed the other groups’ online blog presentation. As I mentioned earlier, I love to eat and enjoy learning new recipes to try on my own. Thank you for sharing those delicious recipes—I can’t wait to try them!

Lastly, thank you, Dr. Rivera, for offering this class. It has truly helped me learn and grow as a professional. Your knowledge and expertise are deeply appreciated. Throughout the sessions, you shared your insights while also encouraging us to share our own, which made the learning experience even more meaningful.
