To wade is to to make one's way slowly or laboriously. I think sometimes this is an appropriate description regarding teaching. My first year of teaching was spent seemingly going from one objective to the next, covering all the necessary class material, and keeping my head above the turbulent waters of the school, district, and state bureaucracy.
The life and times of a teacher, the students and their parents. Plus, a lil bit of stuff that makes it all worthwhile.

About Me
- The Professor
- Allen, Texas, United States
- I was born November 29th 1966. I live in North Texas, married to a wonderful loving wife, Elizabeth. I'm father to a beautiful girl, Averille,and friend to a dog named Ollie. My experiences prior to becoming a teacher have been many and varied. Most of my time after college had been spent in Television and Video production. Longevity in any one position in TV/Video is rare, and I wanted some consistency. I went into sales, having some limited success. I began to listen to my heart, something was missing. I looked into becoming a teacher. Having graduated from East Texas State University, a major teaching school, I felt I knew at least a little bit about teaching. I explored the profession and fell in love with it. After having completed a grueling alternative certification program, passing my ppr and content tests, completing my internship, and getting my certification, I actually look forward to the daily challenges that come with the position. I know that I have made a difference in kids lives, and I look forward to being there for them.
