Education Track

Nicholas H.Tollervey / @ntoll

Two Parts:

Teachers (Friday)

Kids (Saturday)

Developers are invited to both!

Part 1: Teachers

Teaching is the one profession that creates all the other professions.

Teaching is a calling (you're certainly not doing it for the money or "perks").

Teaching is the hardest job I've ever had to do.

Python = prime candidate for teaching language
