Great fundamental ideas overall. I think with a little tweaking here and there your philosophy will be clear
and concise. A few more specific examples and what you can do as an educator yourself specifically versus
educators in general. I printed your philosophy and made some changes but I couldn’t change them on your
link because it is posted as view only. No option to edit.
