Question for you
Holly -- How did you start your career as an online teacher? Were you in a regular classroom first? I'm very interested in making the transition from traditional classroom to virtual classroom. I'm currently teaching 9th and 10th grade English in a small district in Northern Minnesota. Any tips you have would be greatly appreciated!
