Languages and linguistics are fascinating to me and I don't get to speak mine enough, so...

...me as early as high school, and I knew I wanted to work with young people, but I had to thrash around for years trying other disciplines before I could see the obvious. I was a perpetual student for a long time, directionless and underperforming because I had no goals. Once I got in front of a classroom, though, I felt I'd come home; it was only when I knew I was a teacher that...
