Nomination for 2013 Alberta Excellence in Teaching Award

Argyll Centre is pleased to announce that Tony Bell has been nominated for a 2013 Alberta Excellence in Teaching Award.  The Excellence in Teaching Awards Program was initated in 1989 by the Minister of Education to recognize outstanding Alberta teachers, honour creative, innovative and effective teaching, focus public attention on the teaching profession and involve Albertans in celebrating teaching excellence. In support of Tony's nomination, here is what one student had to say: "Being one of his English students for the past year, I have gained a deep appreciation for the quality and level of education that he provides for me and my classmates. I am an online student and so interactions and communications with my teachers are sometimes complicated, but Mr. Bell manages to make our online experience feel like a real classroom with cohesive conversations and community. Every single class brightens my day, whether we're role playing Shakespeare or learning how to sing Happy Birthday in Mandarin; he always finds a way to get even the most averse students engaged and interested in learning." Congratulations Tony on your nomination!
