Deborah Kearny, a Middle School Teacher completed the Graduate certificate in Entrepreneurial Education

Deborah Kearney is a middle school English teacher at Lionville Middle School. During her career she has taught in various settings, bridging distances between classroom and real world experience.  She has taken courses of the Graduate Certificate in Entrepreneurial Education.  She writes, “The Educator Externship (EEE504) course reminded me that my prior experiences were vital to my success as a teacher.  Working with industry leaders helps me reflect on my own teaching practices and constantly improve them. The Externship confirmed for me that there is no place I’d rather be than where I am now-creating a community of learning and watching with wonders as minds expand and vistas open.”
