1/28/19 - 9:15am pst - Teacher, educator and author Jennifer Degenhardt spoke with host Janeane Bernstein



LISTEN to today's conversation!

Jennifer Degenhardt, B.A., M.Ed., taught middle and high school Spanish for 24 years and is currently teaching college level students. She began writing when students in her high school classes were not “buying in” to the traditional textbook lessons. With the first story she wrote, Jennifer found that her students were more engaged, both with the language and in class in general. While her books highlight cultural, social, economic and political themes necessary for continued conversation, both in- and out of the classroom, all of them deal with identity to some degree and how important it is to know who you are. Jennifer is passionate about helping students learn more about themselves and others through storytelling and writing.
