Michael likes languages and working with kids, so he led a long public school career teaching Spanish to middle- and high school students, and survival English to recent immigrants. When he learned as much as he could from his 28 years in the classroom, he started work as an Instructional Designer at K20. He loves applying what he learned from his experience with language students to the lessons he now helps teachers write. When he’s not working on educational stuff, he’s reading, archiving historic photographs, and working in the garden.
