Nebraska Native Leaves a Management Position to be an English Teacher

Kyle Boston moved to Idaho several years ago after finding himself lacking fulfillment with his work. Born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska, Kyle left his position managing a bank to return to school and get a degree. Since then he has studied at Idaho State University and hopes to teach students more than just grammar and reading.

Kyle wants to be able to impact the lives of youth and, once accepted into ISU’s teaching program, he sees himself teaching students at a high school level. He also would like to involve himself in extra-curricular clubs for students and wants to volunteer his time to make sure they continue to be provided. Clubs like high school yearbook or newspaper are clubs he is willing to advise in order to help students.

Since his interview, Kyle has remained busy with school and has begun registering for classes to help him enter the teaching program at ISU. His love for the mountains in Idaho has made it hard to decide whether he wants to teach here or in his home state. He has faced some personal issues that have prevented him from considering moving back to Nebraska, like the passing of his beloved dog, and the future remains unknown for now.

Though he faces many daily obstacles to get an education, like the fifty-minute commute to ISU from Idaho Falls where he lives, Kyle is dedicated to seeking a career that can provide him with more than just a paycheck.
