About The Teacher
This is my first year teaching and I am thrilled to be teaching at Round Rock HS. I grew up all over the US and in Guam as my father was in the Navy. I am a graduate of a private liberal arts university, Azusa Pacific University, in California. You may not have heard of this school before but perhaps have heard of a few of our graduates - Christian Okoye, former running back for the Kansas City Chiefs; Dave Johnson, Decathalon Bronze Medal winner in the '92 Olympics; and Bryan Clay, Decathalon Gold Medal winner in the 2008 Olympics. I was a Business Admin Major/Psychology minor in college. After graduating I spent the next 16 years in the corporate business world working for companies such as Citicorp, MCI, Worldcomm, Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines, Carnival Cruise Lines and most recently at an Austin software start-up called Bazaarvoice. At Bazaarvoice I was an account manager and consulted with fortune 100 consumer electronics accounts on their social media and social commerce initiatives. I have also owned a small business where I learned the challenges and rewards of owning your own business! In the spring of this year (2009) I decided to pursue my passion of education and am now embarking on my career as a teacher. I spent the summer attending and completing teacher certification training through Texas Teachers. I am so excited to be able to help all of our students learn, grow and most importantly SUCCEED by becoming life-long learners! I have been married to Dean for almost 8 years and we have a 5 year old daughter, Hailey, who will be starting kindergarten this year. This is a BIG year for our family with many changes and new journeys and we could not be more excited for what the future holds! We are glad to be a DRAGON family!! I CAN BE REACHED by email at emily_yeck@roundrockisd.org by phone at 512-464-6263 TUTORIALS (*please note change to set tutorial times*): Tuesdays and Fridays 8:15 - 9:00am or by appointment I will also set you up with another BIMM, BCIS or WORLD HISTORY teacher if they have a more convenient time for you. I have morning duty at the central campus from 8:25-9am on Thursday mornings, if you need to talk to me or need help with anything. Central campus is where the 200/600 and 500 buildings intersect.
