About Mr. Ben Jolliffe
Major: Social Studies Education
Who I Am |
Welcome to my Webpage! My name is Ben Jolliffe and I am an aspiring Social Studies Education teacher pursuing my degree at the University of Mary. I was born and raised in the city of Bismarck where I graduated from Bismarck High School and continued my education and athletic career through the University of Mary. I have learned many things throughout my life in North Dakota and intend to continue my adulthood in the state. I am proud to call North Dakota my home. Growing up I was a very active individual competing in a wide range of activities and athletics. Through those experiences, I developed a passion for helping others achieve their own goals and aspirations by setting the proper example to assist in their success.

Reverence for Teaching
|
Although I have several family ties to the teaching career, I would not incorporate this as the main factor in my chosen path. Growing up I did not always want to or even think I was going to pursue a career in education, but through my maturation I noticed a growing passion I had for leadership and assisting others. I pursued new experiences in the realms of tutoring and coaching adolescents where my reverence for the teaching profession grew into my own ambitions of becoming an excellent educator for young adults.
