Welcome to my blog!
Welcome to my story, which, like all good stories, is very much in progress.
The impetus of this blog is my participation in the Teachers for Global Classrooms program, an experience that has already been influential in my personal and profession life.
Here's how the program works:

Welcome to my story, which, like all good stories, is very much in progress.

Here's how the program works:
- Secondary teachers can apply for this opportunity (go now! apply today!)
- Teachers who are accepted take an 8-week online Global Education course - the course was rigorous, engaging and relevant to my current and future teaching practice
- Teachers meet in Washington, DC, for a Global Education Symposium
- Teachers participate in an International Field Experience for 2 - 3 weeks
