Guest Bio: Keith has taught in NH for the past 21 years. As a lover of all subjects, he guided fourth graders for 13 years, but spent the past seven years teaching middle schoolers to have fun while learning math. Sounds impossible right? He is moving onto new adventures for the 2020/2021 school year, teaching 6th graders to appreciate getting lost in a novel and share his love of writing with students, hoping to build voice and confidence. Noyes was honored as the 2019 NH Teacher of the Year, and spent time traveling the country along with his cohort to reflect, grow and perfect his craft by learning from other powerful educators and experts in the field. Keith feels strong student/teacher connections and relationships are at the core of successful teaching.
