First, I believe that every student is capable of learning. Every person has the right to a good education, and it is the responsibility of the teacher, whether classroom or...

...non-fiction books: science, philosophy, psychology, and human health. I love being physically active, so lately my outlet has been martial arts like Capoeira and kickboxing.

Whatever your goals, I'd like to help achieve them.
