In 2010, Bethanne changed schools once again, due to marriage and a move, and began to teach at a large, comprehensive high school in Fort Worth, 德州, 人口在种族和社会经济上都很多样化.

Bethanne was awarded 2013年沃斯堡的休厄尔·雷克萨斯人文学科卓越教学奖.

TEACHING PHILOSOPHY

I believe in students and in their potential. 我认为所有的学生都应该被鼓励去实现他们的潜力,而不应该因为种族而被归类, ethnicity, 性别, ability or socio-economic background … or any other characteristic, past decisions or belief sets.

我相信学生作为人的需要和课程内容的需要一样重要. 我相信教学和学习应该是协作的、反应的和反思的. I believe systems can and should be improved so that they 为所有参与者工作,我不相信阻止人们成为解决方案一部分的“通道”.

I know that teaching is work and work is about people, so the experiences of all of those around me (students, co-workers, 管理者)在课堂上发生的事情中起着重要的作用. Teaching should help students build the skills necessary to become contributors to society, so in a classroom, learning should matter and be applicable to real-world scenarios.

I believe learning is messy, loud and, at times, uncomfortable.
