Q. How were your teaching methods different? 
A. Those four years, I was challenged more than I ever had been before. I couldn’t fall back on familiar references, like the Cubs or the Sox or the Bears. I learned there are so many ways to engage kids. You have to be flexible and adapt. There’s a way to get to every kid.
