He truly is the epitome of the characteristics described in the Patience Norman Award criteria. Additionally, Tim not only uses technology to benefit his own students, he is always willing to share what he does with others as well. I was so inspired by Tim's work with his blog, that I began my own as well. Tim is not only a role model for other teachers, but for administrators and the like, showing us all the benefit of creatively using technology to improve teaching and learning! Bravo Tim.

I have been privileged to work with Tim since arriving in in this district three years ago as the Educational Technology Coordinator. I have never met a teacher with more devotion to teaching nor with more curiosity and desire to use every tool available. Congratulations, Tim.

It's amazing what you've done in the last few years with technology! Just don't get too good! You'll have to move on to bigger and better things! Although what could be better than being with children all day long, doing what you love? Your students are truly fortunate to have you as a teacher, as I am to have you as a teammate.
