About: Brendan
I'm 38 and grew up in the suburbs of Chicago. I am a teacher and a parent. Officially I have six years as a teacher in my own classroom and five summers experience in summer camp. I have a Master's degree in Education from Northwestern University (ranked 6th in the United States last year) and around 20 graduate hours in graduate education focusing on methods of teaching and gifted education. I have taught or student taught in schools in major cities, suburbs, and rural towns. I have been in every classroom from kindergarten to high school either as a teacher or student teacher.
