hi classmates,
My name is Dave and I am teacher in a high school in West Vancouver. I teach film and photography. Shockingly I am full time with those courses even though the high school is not that big. I have been teaching there since 2012. Before that I taught in Anahim Lake elementary in BC. It was a rural school with mostly First Nation students. It was a very difficult year for me as I was not prepared for the difficulties that First Nations live with. I am a strong advocate for improving their educational opportunities.
This is my fifth class in the MET program. I tend to take about one a term. I have two young kids at home and they keep me very busy. My wife is also a teacher in the Vancouver school district.
Looking forward to to working with you.
