Balbi

I have been a supervisor and mentor for K-12 teachers working with English language learners since 1980. I estimate that I have written over 2000 observation reports from 1980 to the present.
I continue to enjoy working with new and experienced teachers guiding them through theory to practice as a means to assist English language learners self-actualize. Accomplished teachers along with accomplished students will grow a more facinating world.
