Tina Bakopoulos To All Instructors

Hello. I am Dr. Tina Bakopoulos, a 25-year veteran, middle and high school English/Language Arts teacher, who also works with students with disabilities, team-teaching in the general education classroom. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Secondary English Education from DePaul University, my Master’s in Special Education from Chicago State University and my Doctorate in Administration and Leadership from Chicago State University. Throughout my years as a teacher, I learned that educators have a responsibility to lead, guide and assist all learners into reaching their full potential and that education has many purposes, but chief among them is to prepare students for the future. This not only happens within the walls of a classroom but also throughout the social world around us and the daily impact it has on us as learners. I believe that teachers must also be a “jack of all trades” and while my background is primarily in secondary English and Special Education, my own interests stem from reading, creating, crafting, and being hands-on with various modalities as a form of expression.
