Talking with Teachers Around the World

I talked with a teacher in New York. I actually started talking to her a while back. Her name is Cynthia Walker. She actually does blogging with her students. The students seem to like blogging. She said the main reason they like it so much is because it is something out of the ordinary. Her main focus is her students. She like me wants her students to come to class and have a good time but learn also. She likes to use different techniques to help the students learn in a fun way. She did say there are times when she will have to stop doing the fun activity and use the book because the students will start getting to loud.

I really enjoyed talking to her and seeing what and how she taught her class. It was interesting to see that she is more of a hands on learner and therefore she uses that in her classroom. She also accomidates for the students who may not leran so well hands on.
