* Teaching Strategies has been a mandatory part of the teacher training program in Latin America for many years. Whenever I travel to festivals in Peru and Ecuador to teach this class, I see such positive transformation from the teachers! I am very excited that the SAA is extending this course to the teachers North America, and I am looking forward to sharing it with everyone!
