I grew up on a farm in Iowa. I read somewhere that Iowans are fiercely proud of their state—so much so, it’s almost like they have a pathological love for dirt and pigs. I certainly fit this description. Until quite recently, I used to say that I was proud to be from Iowa, but not so proud to be from the US. Yes, I am happy about our new president.
My wife and I have been living overseas for 12 years—4 in Azerbaijan and the last 8 in Kazakhstan—working as teachers. This year, I am enjoying a year of sabbatical while I study ideas about teaching literacy. Oftentimes, I like to write. Many times, though, I am sick of it. So...I’m taking this class to explore the possibility that I might actually be able to write something that is valuable.
There is a slim chance—practically NO chance—that I will have to take some time this spring to go to Australia for a personal interview. If you are interested, you could follow this link to my 1-minute—video application.
