Watch on posterous
Bobbi is pregnant! Instead of sending out more pregnant photos, we are sending out videos! Expect to see more videos of Jaxon once he has arrived.

My teaching philosophy
I realize I haven’t written in a while, but several things have been going on. I am now teaching a night class at the Art Institute of Dallas. The class is web development for graphic design. So far I’m enjoying the time I spend teaching.
My wife is a teacher as well and I’ve heard several teacher-like statements from her, so now it’s my turn to espouse my teaching philosophy.
I teach the way that I wish I was taught.

Not a very long philosophy, huh? I think we all have these same feelings about parenting: “When I grow up and have kids, I’m never going to make them do ____.” I’m serious though. I teach the way I learned best. I show examples I think are relevant and helped me. I guess a teacher is nothing more than a knowledge aggregator.
