“Today’s Your Last Day”

I guess those words are a little less difficult to hear than “You’re fired”, but I’m sure the impact is the same. Especially when it comes as a surprise, with no written documentation leading up to the termination.

I heard those words last week, after a somewhat challenging and brief tenure at an extremely successful company; one that provided a fast-paced environment within which one would succeed – or not. I guess I’m in the latter group, as once again, technological trials and the all-too-common curse of impractical management resulted in a project time frame being accelerated by 25% of time allowed, without an advocate communicating that was simply impossible to meet.

Be that as it may, I’m back in the job market once again, looking at pursuing my true love – educating children.

Just a few of my proven enriching learning activities include a classroom micro-economy to address the dire state of financial literacy, music, art, and movement as daily challenges (including writing music and verse for publication)… all working in harmony as a primary driver for mastering new knowledge. 

Know of any school interested in a renaissance teacher? One who will engage the whole child, insuring engagement and commitment, drawing on real-life experiences to ensure the core of learning is truly common?
