They test knowledge that every high school student should know, but do it in cryptic ways that ... Read more

I stayed there eight years altogether. Then there was a year teaching at a private school--French and German. In the years that followed I drifted into consulting and took on the job of simultaneous interpreter and trouble-shooter for the State Department's program hosting Chinese visitors and showi...
