- About Me:
- I have been a Latin teacher for the past 12 years. I started teaching middle school, but have been at the high school level for the past 10 years. I am the sole Latin teacher at my school and am looking to connect with other colleagues.

- I spend a great deal of time creating power point presentsations on cultural topics that come up in Ecce. I find them useful for bringing the "Romans" into the clasasroom. I use an LCD projector to display my work.
