While I was at the airport about to travel to Ghana in June 2014, I received an e-mail that an article I recently submitted to the UFT was published...
Earlier on in the year, there was a call to subit Essays in the form of "Advice" to other teachers. I decided to write about a concept I use in my English classes that were influenced by my 10th grade English teacher too.
The published article currently hangs in my classroom along Ghanaian masks I purchased later that summer. It serves as a constant reminder of my passion, and inspires me to continue moving forward in my academic and professional pursuits.
