Master Teaching

a blog for teachers who follow the Master Teacher

“loved by Yahweh”

Join us on a journey that begins today and ends with a sore knees challenge May 4-11. This week’s post starts with Melissa in China. Next week, we’ll travel to Ethiopia, then back to China, on to Lebanon, and finally India. We’ll be hearing from different teachers about the “loved by Yahweh” in their classrooms as they answer the question “What does it mean to you to be a teacher who follows the Master Teacher?”
