Teacher expertise and credentials
I have 17 years of teaching experience and test-preparation. I find that teaching students to understand analogies leads them to creating their own analogies when learning new content across every content area--which can be a POWERFUL learning tool. Additionally, analogies expose students to vocabulary they might not otherwise encounter.Reviews
