Paul Youngberg, Second Grade Teacher

pyoungberg@odysseycharter.net

First off, I never expected to teach.  I grew up in Sacramento, attended Casa Roble High School, (Mrs. Call's Alma Mater,) and considered law as my goal.  I received a Bachelor of Arts from UC Berkeley, where I majored in Political Science.  I also studied Medieval history, sign making and protest marching (they were requirements.)  After college, I worked in various fields, from retail sales to restaurants.   I never felt satisfied, though. 

My wife and I finally moved to Utah for a change of scenery, and I started working for Sundance as a Tree Room server.  I decided that since I was off during the day, I might have fun substitute teaching.  I came to Odyssey, was hired as a full-time instructor, and never looked back.  When an opportunity opened up in the Second Grade, I knew that I had found my career.

I'm a big foodie and love nice restaurants, but am just as comfortable grabbing a corn dog from a mom-and-pop burger stand.  Coming from California, I love sushi, good (or bad) Mexican, Thai, Ethiopian, Indian, and the list keeps going.  I'm still a political junkie, volunteer for campaigns when I can, and love a good argument.  Movies are a particular passion for my wife and I, and we enjoy laughing at a terrible flick as much as crying over great one.  Now that I'm in Utah, I suppose I should learn to snowboard....
