Student Teachers

 

Welcome!

 

My name is Jason Bowers. I graduated from North Penn High School in 2003 and I am currently a senior at Gwynedd Mercy College where I am a double major in history and mathematics with secondary teacher certification. My goal for the future is to become a middle school or high school teacher. I am here at Bishop McDevitt for the fall semester shadowing Mr. Minieri as a pre-student teacher. As a pre-student teacher I am at Bishop McDevitt one day a week so I can observe high school teachers in action and learn what it takes to become a great teacher. I will also be giving a few lessons of my own.  My favorite past times include baseball and golf (I play on the Gwynedd Mercy Golf Team). I also enjoy watching all sports, especially football. Go EAGLES! I appreciate the opportunity that Bishop McDevitt and Mr. Minieri have given me and I wish everyone here at McDevitt the best.

My name is John Butler. I graduated from Cedar Cliff High School in 2002. Cedar Cliff is located just outside of Harrisburg Pa, in a small town called Camp Hill. I now attend LaSalle University where I am on a full scholarship to run Cross Country and Track and Field. I'm (obviously) studying to become a high school teacher, and my focus is in History/Social Studies. I have two sisters, one older and one younger. My oldest sister Kristen works for ESPN, more specifically for the NFL in their programming department. My younger sister Meghan attends California University of Pennsylvania where she is in her sophomore year. I've always been very passionate about becoming a teacher, I've really never considered a different profession. Being able to explain things to others and see the excitement when they finally achieve their goals has always been something that has inspired me.

My name is Nicholas Bubel, and I graduated from Bishop McDevitt High School in 2001.  I received my BA in Political Science, from Arcadia University, in 2005.  Currently, I am enrolled in the Graduate School at Arcadia University, where I am pursuing both my Master of Arts in Education degree, as well as my certification for secondary education social studies.  I am presently employed as a Graduate Assistant for a professor in the Education Department.

I am privileged and honored to say that I am now back at Bishop McDevitt, observing and assisting the Social Studies Department.  Everyone welcomed me back with open arms, and it is a true joy to be giving something back to those who put me on the path to college success.  It is a pleasure to observe teachers like Mrs. Rieffel, Mr. Minieri, Mr. Achuff, and Mr. Manzi.  The teachers could not be more helpful to me then they are now.  It is immeasurably rewarding for me to be giving back to the school and people who helped me get to where I am today. I have no doubt that my time here will contain many cherished memories, the ones that last a lifetime.  So far, since coming back, I have had several, and I am sure they will only continue in the future.
