Danny Is completing is 6th year in secondary education. He loves history and philosophy. He has taught several AP courses. See his AP video series coming soon. Jenny and Danny have taught in Texas, the Republic of Georgia, Thailand and in Canada.

MY TEACHING STYLE

If you were to walk into one of our classrooms you would see a certain level of controlled chaos.We have had students in small groups daily as well as a whole group time. In order to develop all 4 linguistic domains (listening, speaking, reading, and writing) it is important that students are practicing; therefore we believe the controlled chaos is necessary.
