Returning to Clark College Fall 2022
I will return to Clark College to lead and teach the Web Development program this fall. It will mark the start of my 11th year teaching full-time and my 3rd year on Tenure-Track. New this term is that students enrolled in my Python courses will have the opportunity to earn a certificate from Harvard University simultaneously (CS50P). How cool is that? Come to Clark College and earn a certificate from Harvard! I will share more information on what’s in store for me shortly.
