David believes that encouraging students to become more aware of the world around them, to realize and appreciate multiple sides to every story and every issue, and to begin to get a better sense of their potential as global citizens, are fundamental to a students’ education. He emphasizes that good teachers are driven by a sense of moral purpose, and they have a keen appreciation for the difference they can make in students’ lives. Many times, it is paying attention to the little things that will pay important relational dividends — and this can mean the world to some students.
