Hey there! Thanks for joining me!
June 2019
Teachers are wonderful people. And I am not just saying this because I am a teacher.
This month I was being interviewed by a fellow teacher, Gabrielle Estel, who teaches English at a private school in Taiwan.
Not only did Gabrielle read THE GIRL WHO BECAME A GODDESS, but she also reached out to me. While that touched me and made me feel special, Gabrielle then proceeded to do something even more wonderful.
In her review, Gabrielle did something no one else has done yet. She added her own story to mine and in doing so she personalised the stories. Wow! And then she did something that got me even more excited. She shared my stories with her students, some of whom KNEW these stories! Finally, Gabrielle ended with the impartation that she was going to further research into the background of these stories! This is precisesly what teachers live for! To know we have lit a spark! And to see that spark go on into a blaze!
Thank you Gabrielle! You have made this teacher extremely happy!
