Time warp would be nice right about now – or a Tardis!

Welcome! Your life experiences are amazing. You are working for ideals that I hold very dear. I look forward to talking with you about how to start intercultural groups in my area (Charlotte, NC). I have so many […]

OK – Kurt Vonnegut, Maus, contemplative art, and a rock opera about aliens. You re gong to be a very interesting person to talk with. I look forward to finding out how you bring your students to a new level of […]

Hello Bryan! Welcome to the group. I taught Catholic Literature last year and my students wrote some wonderful short stories. I am interested to hear about what you do with your students. I love to sing and listen […]

Judy! I can’t wait to experience this with you.
