Random Photos: 2009-2010

     Most of the students in these photos would graduate in 2010, and most of them were students of mine.  The students above are, from left to right, Jasmine Chen, Michelle Chen, and Cristina (now Katrina) Liao.  The first six photos on this page were sent to me by students.

      At left above, Teresa (now Momo) Chen shares a laugh with Ruby and others while proving her case before a class.  Jane waves at right. 

      At left, Julia and me.  Ruby, at right, is unsure of herself as she states a belief and  attempts to prove it to the class.  Take a look at the whiteboard behind Julia and me.  I held all the students to the same high standards of evidence and critical thinking skills.

      Very few of my students had a prettier smile than Wendy.
