“I believe that children should be encouraged to learn in their own way without the pressures of too much “planned” regimentation, though I know that some structure and practice can help. I also believe in tapping the new ideas of information technology for educational purposes and communicating with the world.
I love teenagers, though they sometimes drive me crazy, but I have survived 14 years of teenagers in my own family, so I think I have passed the test!”
