Hello out there to all of my late-night internet trolling educators!
My name is Tim Butler. I'm a 1st year teacher out of Shreveport Louisiana. I teach Social Studies at Woodlawn Leadership Academy, World History and World Geography to be exact. I passed my English PRAXIS but have not yet had the opportunity to run an English class. The goal would to possibly be able to teach a block schedule class that combined World History and English IV, so that I could replicate what was such a wonderful experience for me during my High School Senior Year at Captain Shreve, where the History & English class was aligned.
I used the Troops to Teachers program, which, by the way, is a fantastic program and I should be wrapping up my Masters in the Summer Quarter of 2015!
Feel free to leave me any tips, tricks, advice or resource links that may help me become a great educator and I will do the same.
