** Welcome to Susan Hinkley's E-Portfolio! ** ("It is only with the heart that one can see clearly. What is essential is invisible to the eyes.") This quote not only represents the core of my educational philosophy, but my personal life philosophy as well. I am currently a French Teacher at Palmyra-Eagle High/Middle School in Palmyra, WI, and am certified to teach French PK - 12. It is my ambition to obtain a French teaching position where I can share my passion for the French language and culture as I engage students in the learning process with an emphasis on 21st century skills. Following are several comments that I have received from students who have taken my courses:
 *  "On ne voit bien qu'avec le coeur. L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux." St. Exupéry **
