Hello! My name is Melanie Anderson and I am an undergraduate student at the University of Missouri- Columbia. I am currently studying Elementary Education and am a preservice teacher in the College of Education. I was born and raised in Bentonville, Arkansas and have an older sister and a twin brother who also attended Mizzou. I love spending my summer days on the lake and in the fall football season is my favorite. I enjoy traveling and learning about different cultures and people. I have always loved working with children and am very excited to have my own classroom. It is my goal to have all of my students feel wanted, welcomed, loved and appreciated. I can't wait to get started!
