Carol Maxwell
Smart Cookie
Although she'd never admit it, Carol is one smart
cookie. For example, she scored in the 99th percentile on the National
Teacher Exam. She was identified as one of the ten brightest freshman
women
at Michigan State University the year she started there. (No, I won't
say
which year that was.)
Present Job
Since 1988(?) Carol has been teaching at State
Farm,
Virginia. That is to say, she teaches in a state prison. She teaches
everything
from beginning reading through high school equivalency.
What she does is very important and
rewarding
because it helps prison inmates improve their educational level--and
improve
themselves--and that's the only thing ever shown to reduce
recidivism
significantly.
Other Teaching Experience
Carol has also taught in Nigeria, Spain, China,
and
in the U.S. at J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College and in adult
education
programs in North Carolina, Missouri, and Virginia.
Sorry, that's all for now.
