My native language was Spanish. I was born in Bogota, Colombia but I've been in the U.S. since I was 16 years old. Learning the correct English pronunciation, I also developed games to enhance the learning of Spanish and English as a second language. I found that this was indeed a very useful tool to speed up learning and make students happier when they studied the language. For a few years before my retirement, I was elevated to serve as a counselor to adults whose primary language was Spa... Read more

I believe it’s important to acknowledge the many achievements gaps in education. Darling Hammond in her book the Flat world and Education, states that “At a time when children of color comprise a majority in most urban districts and will be a majority in the nation as a whole by 2025, we face pernicious achievement gaps that fuel inequality short changing our young people and nation. “ There’s this perceived notion that schools provide equal opportunities for all. However, we need to realize ... Read more
