Jacqueline Kelley graduated in 2025 with a M.Ed. in Education Leadership, Organizations, and Entrepreneurship with a concentration in Literacy and Languages from the Harvard Graduate School of Education. During her time at Harvard, she was a lab assistant at the Jeanne Chall Reading Lab and was on the Student Advisory Board for the literacy and languages concentration where she was able to dive deeper into the processes of learning how to teach students the critical skill of reading. Her work built on her undergraduate studies at the University of Florida where she graduated in 2024 with a BAE in Elementary Education. During her time in Florida, Jacqueline had multiple field placements at local elementary schools that solidified her love for teaching reading to students in the early elementary levels. She believes reading is a right for all students and is passionate about passing a love of reading onto every student that steps inside her classroom. Jacqueline is thrilled at the opportunity to head to Greece and see the teaching practices that lead to Greece having one of the highest literacy rates globally as well as immerse herself in all the country has to offer. In her free time, she enjoys reading, being by the ocean, and spending time with her loved ones.
