Mrs. Marble’s Facts She teaches FL because she always enjoyed
learning a FL She didn’t have the opportunity to study abroad but
has traveled to Mexico She definitely does not teach the way she was
taught, but rather very differently The fundamentals of her teaching have not changed
over the years, just little improvements and tweeks to her lessons to develop to her overall objective and philosophy
She encourages a student lead learning style, giving her students lots of independence and responsibility
