What people are saying
Virginia Luna
Teacher
"I love teaching English Language Learners. I came to this country in 2001, I was 9 years old, about to turn 10, and I started 6th grade. I did not know a single word in English. I try to teach my students the same way I was taught, by building on what they know. For me it is a little bit easier, since we share a lot of the same backgrounds, so my students and I can relate to one another."
Ellis Stephens
Student
"So just recording yourself, it was a confidence boost for me, and it really helped me. And I'm sure that if we keep going with podcasting, it will really help people."
Annette Buckner
Teacher
"I've had some really great examples and to look up to, especially my teachers I teach with at Dalton High School. I just feel like I feel like since I've come to Dalton, my teaching has changed to be more inquiry-based and I feel like that sets me apart."
Leydi Ballesteros
Alum
