Laura Pearce
Laura graduated from the University of Minnesota, TC, in May of 2016 with a degree in Speech-Language and Hearing Sciences. She wanted to go back to graduate school for Speech Pathology but decided she'd like to do some traveling beforehand. I was thinking about volunteering abroad until she met some people who said they taught English abroad.
