Below Mr. Gen tells us in his own words. Before high school, I taught at the university level. Presently I teach 9th grade English, Journalism and the Academic Decathlon team. The CD is a product produced by students, designed by students, and sponsored by students. The members of the club receive no academic credit they do it for the sake of learning and the joy of producing something, which the community can enjoy.
Illuminations is an opportunity for students to showcase their work and interests.
I believe that my job as an educator is to provide students with opportunities. Most students make the best of the opportunities presented to them provided if they capture the vision of what can be. I am presently pursuing a doctorate in Educational Technology at Pepperdine University. It is a very exciting program. I look forward to planning and implementing the curriculum and technology needed in the classroom of the 21st century.
