What I love most about teaching:
Inside of every real man is a child. Teaching allows me to return to those thrilling days of yesteryear!
My favorite moment in teaching:
Several years ago I taught a girl from the war torn country of Bosnia. She wouldn't talk, even though she spoke fluent English. In April of that year, she and several girls approached me about putting on the play, "A New Flag for a New Country," for the class. I agreed on one condition. She had to have the leading role. It was music to my ears the first time that I heard her rehearsing the leading role. She did a wonderful job and has become one of the most popular children in her class. I am proud that I gave her an opportunity to portray Betsy Ross!
Personal information:
I love classic and muscle cars from the 60's and 70's and music from the 80's! Ask me about my GTO!
