About Me

My photo
Karen Szymusiak
Sunbury, Ohio
I am a teacher and a learner. I listen carefully to the voices of children because when we really listen, they tell us all there is to know about teaching wisely and well. I have been a teacher, a consultant, a writer, and an elementary school principal. I believe strongly that conversations and relationships are at the heart of all learning.
