    I am ready. I have taught for 29 yrs. The level of respect from students and leadership in the schools is painstakingly missing.

    How do you explain the reason you left teaching was because you were assaulted and the district did nothing? I love teaching and I did it for 5 years but I was hurt by a student. I developed PTSD and have trauma from it. It was really bad. Thanks. Love this.

    Education, Business, or Computer Science, depending on which aspects of Edtech you’re most interested in! Courses in project management, systems analysis, learning sciences, and design thinking or entrepreneurship are very helpful in this field!
