Mark Hazard

Another Latin teacher in the group! Here is Mark Hazard’s bio:

I have been teaching Latin at a public high school in Maine for the past seven years.  Before that I taught a couple of years at Cheverus in Portland, and before that I taught for about 6 years in colleges in New York and Maine (U. Rochester, Colby, Bates) courses on medieval literature, classics and Shakespeare.

I got interested in TPRS after doing some immersion workshops with SALVI in California and Virginia, and then hearing about Ben’s books and Blaine Ray’s workshops.  I took a couple of workshops with Blaine Ray or the people who work with him.  Lately, I’ve gotten interested in memory techniques based on the classical methods, and have had a lot of fun applying them for myself.

I just found out a couple of weeks ago, though, that I’m being laid off, thanks to the savage budget cuts that schools in Maine are experiencing, so I don’t know what I’ll be doing next year.
