AUTHOR INFO
Bonnie Block earned her MS from the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and a BA from The University of Texas at Arlington. Her graduate internship and thesis focused on teaching DEI. She taught Spanish to middle school, high school, and university-level students in public, private, and international schools for 20 years. For 3 of those years, she taught South Korean high school students at a South Korean high school dedicated to developing global leaders. She has also lived in Massachusetts, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Texas and has loved the idiosyncrasies of every one of those cultures. Bonnie is dazzled by what people have achieved and what it took for them to get there. She is even more impressed when these same people choose to help others and improve our world.
