So, who is this guy?

Hey!  My name is Mr. Thompson, or just “Mr. T.” Believe it or not, this is my 20th year teaching! YES! I teach public speaking, English 10, and drama at BHS.

So, how did I wind up as a teacher?  Just lucky, I guess…  I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Parkside with BA in English and a concentration in writing.

I went back to graduate school to acquire my teaching license.  I soon graduated with a Masters in teaching.  My first teaching experience took me north towards Hartford for seven years when a struggling economy forced a change, which then took me to schools in Clinton and Kenosha.

Even though I student taught at BHS in 2003, I finally made it back in 2014-15.  As far as my education goes, I still haven’t stopped.  Not long ago, I finished my second Master’s degree in reading.  I also just recently finished working on my reading specialist’s license (17). We’ll see where I go now!

Here you go. This should make me sound more “official”:

Education:

  • BA in English with a concentration in writing from UW-Parkside
  • MA in Teaching from Concordia University
  • MA in Reading from Concordia University

Subject Licenses:

  •  17 READING SPECIALIST
  • 300 ENGLISH
  • 316 READING TEACHER
  • 320 SPEECH COMMUNICATION
  • 952 ALTERNATIVE EDUCATION

 

More to come later…
