My name is Andrea Scott and I am a Spanish Teacher at a local immersion school in St. Louis, Missouri. Education is a very important factor in my life, and it has been ever since I was a little girl. I was born and raised in Saint Louis, Missouri with three siblings and a single mother. I am determined to not only fulfill my dreams, but I plan to become the example that dreams do come true.As an author, I see myself fulfilling this mission when I work with young students from high-risk environments; however, my students motivate me to want to do more. I believe that life has so much it offer, and I am anxious to discover some of it greatest gifts.
