Alright Philly, it’s time to show up for our fellow workers, our neighbors, and our city. At 3pm on Wednesday, we’re going to FLOOD City Hall with people power, and show Mayor Parker which side we’re on!!

Crazy to start my week off by getting a $900 bill from Aetna claiming the doctor I saw is out of network when I found that doctor… through Aetna’s website

I’ve only ever taught MWF classes. Does anyone have any tips for making T/TH classes interesting and engaging for the longer period of time?
