- About Me
- I taught 8th grade U.S. History/gov't with a passion. I got the most out of my students in a low income, multicutural community. I became principal and was principal for over 10 yrs but I missed the classroom. I went back to the classroom and taught 8th grade U.S. History and was District and County mentor teacher. My book, "Think You Can Teach? A Survival Guide For Middle School Students" is great for all grades and is available at amazon.com barnesandnoble.com
all bookstores on their computer. Author, Avrech. I am just learning first day on twitter.
