Superheroes Teach

The education system is evolving rapidly, yet the challenges faced by teachers remain constant. In my 15 years of experience within the education system, ranging from High School Alternative School to K12, Music teacher for an after school grant funded program and higher education with the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, I have witnessed a significant shift in the dynamics of education. Teachers, our unsung heroes, deal with unprecedented challenges in this ever-changing landscape. In this book I will share my thoughts on why I feel teachers are superheroes and why they should be valued by our communities, parents and students. No one is perfect, so the human side of a teacher will always be present. Overall, to heed the call to teach and all that comes with that mantle takes exceptional quality and exceptional ability. Therefore, I metaphorically say, superheroes teach. I will share stories from my childhood, my experience in the School system as well as the stories of other impeccable superheroes.
