I've been teaching for more than 30 years in junior hi, high school, and college classrooms.
I believe: *learning can and should be fun, *it's most important to learn how to learn, *the truly intelligent person doesn't know all the answers, they just know where to find them, *if I respect the students, they'll respect me.
