I have been teaching at the high school level since 1999. I've taught in three states: Georgia, Arizona, and California.
I believe that creating relationships in the classroom is the most important aspect of education. Our students have lives outside of school that directly impact the way they learn. If we do not honor that, we are not doing justice in our classrooms and offering the best education possible.
