...elementary students as a Peace Corps volunteer in ThailandI continue to see the power of critical thinking when fueled by curiosity. I believe that this coupling of curiosityor "inquiry," as some of us call itand textual analysis can change the world.

...are absolutely critical to the trust that must be developed to facilitate education. My approach has worked with absolutely undeniable results. Students taking the PSAT and SAT have found their numbers jump beyond what they could have expected. But beyond these tests, there is an underlying indicator I must share.
