Mr. Marino’s Teacher Spotlight

Mr.+Marinos+Teacher+Spotlight

What made you want to teach?
“Two different teachers that I had, my sixth-grade teacher who changed my life, and one of my high school English teachers. Also, there’s a movie called Dead Poets Society, and after I watched that I was like I want to do that for a living.”
Compared to the other schools that you’ve taught at, which one do you like the best?
“Pioneer Valley is the best school in this district, and it’s the best school I’ve ever worked at. This is the second school that I’ve formally worked at, but I’ve substituted at a lot of schools. This is the best one.”
Do you have any hobbies?
“I cook all the time. I read all the time. I play the drums. I hang out with my friends, and I have an eight-year-old kid and hang out with my wife.”
