What advice would you give to people considering a career in teaching?
        Teaching isn't an easy profession and it's time consuming but so rewarding in so many ways.  If you have the passion for education and teenagers, give it a try.  If you look forward to getting up and going to work, then you've made the right choice.
        What's the best thing about teaching?
        With a career as long as mine there are many high points.  Having former students return or get in touch and tell how the class or I have made a positive impact on them is rewarding and often I didn't know it at the time.  It's also been rewarding to implement a shop for robotics and engineering and to have developed the Engineering Robotics course  these are both life changing for so many students.
