Have an amazing semester.

 * Summer 2012 || Michael N. || While teaching is my current passion, my background is in film. Both involve figuring out how to create something within a given set of restrictions, which I find incredibly satisfying. I love the challenge of problem solving and finding a way to realize the full potential in every situation. I’m also very into incorporating Web 2.0 technologies into the classroom and think it’s extremely important for children to learn this technology in school. I did my student teaching last Fall at PS 235 with the greatest bunch of 1st graders imaginable. I’m set to graduate this Fall and look forward to putting into practice everything I’ve learned. || [[file:About Me - MN-7.21.12.doc]] ||  ||

Good luck to everyone. ||   ||  || I have a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from Long Island University.

I am currently a substitute teacher[[image:http://cdncache-a.akamaihd.net/items/it/img/arrow-10x10.png link="home#38485149"]] and a graduate student at Brooklyn College. I was inspired to teach by a teacher in high-school; he taught in such a simplistic yet effective manner that learning felt like a breeze. I aspire to be as good of a teacher as him, but to get to that level, I have to put in the work to get there. I hope to achieve that through the courses in Brooklyn college. || CBSE 7204 ||  ||
