Recommendations from an Expert
For me, one of the coolest things was we would have discussions in the classroom, and then if I went to lunch with them, or later in the afternoon, they would still be talking about some of the debates we had. They would be using [philosophy]to prove points to each other and that was really cool to see that they were having fun in the classroom, which is the point. They’re having fun learning.
