Keynote: My Students Are My Champions! by Maria J. Garcia San MartinWith the aim of sharing how I accomplished the 'Be someone's champion' and 'Plant a Seed of Belief' goals with my students, I'll be talking about how my students have become my champions and it's actually them who've planted a seed of belief and enthusiasm in me, as they bring the best of me as a teacher when I see them grow, improve and connect.
