My name is Mr. Tran and I am excited to embark you on an academic journey encompassing years and years of US History and technology. My teaching philosophy will place a great emphasis on acquiring not only content-rich information but essential skills students will need to survive in a 21st century world. This will include critical reading, writing, and thinking skills you will use for the rest of your lives and beyond. I received my Bachelor of Arts in History and Communications at the University of California, San Diego and acquired my teaching credential at California State University, Fullerton. I like to spend my free time doing community service activities as well as reading, watching movies, and appreciating the simple things in life.
