Acknowledgments

I want to acknowledge those who have helped me along the way in the production of this book.

Thank you to my family for your faithful support—giving me a quiet space to write, being patient with my early mornings and late nights, cooking meals for me while I was writing, and helping me feed the ducks and taking long walks along the lagoon when I needed a break.

While my family fueled me with support and inspiration, my editor, Margie McAneny, propelled me through the publishing process. Through her wisdom, she saw the need for this book and shared her talents, time, and energy to make it a reality. In addition, thanks to Tracy Gallagher, senior editorial assistant, who advised me on clarifying content and provided practical publishing pointers. Both of them helped me navigate the journey of this book, steering me from tips to techniques that transform teaching.

A special thanks to my dear friend and professional colleague, Dr. Harry Wong. Harry is truly a teacher's teacher and mentor to us all!

Finally, I want to thank all of the hundreds of students and teachers I have worked with in my thirty-plus years as a professional educator. You were the fuel that ignited my passion for teaching!
