Some of Ms. Wahle's favorite things include quilts, books, watching old sitcoms, and laughter.

Ms. Wahle considers it and honor to be an EL teacher because she is inspired by her students. They face many challenges learning the English language, including the academic language of middle school, and experiencing a different culture. Ms. Wahle is proud of her students and their accomplishments.
