Introduction Post

I’m Blair and I would like to tell you a little bit about myself. My teaching career started 20 years ago as a Marketing Teacher /Coordinator.  I graduated from Wayne State University in 1985 with a BS in Business Administration in Public Relations and Advertising.  While looking for a job, a friend suggested I apply for a substitute teacher with Detroit Public Schools.  I tried it and really enjoyed teaching.  I went back to school and obtained my Masters/Teaching Certification and Occupational Certification from Eastern Michigan University in Business Education.  I have been the Marketing Teacher/DECA Advisor/Coordinator at Western International High School for 17 years. I teach Marketing, Entrepreneurship, and Marketing Cooperative (School to Work/Student Job Placement).  In 2008 I earned my Administration Certification. 

My hobbies are singing, fitness, traveling, and going to the movies.  Even though, I find time to fit all of my hobbies into my schedule, I would like to visit schools internationally to see how student learning differs from our teaching methods.
