Christian Wu
Prior to joining the Teachers College community, Christian served as a high school math teacher in South Bay San Diego for seven years. His teaching experience took place within the same district he attended as a middle and high school student, which allowed him to experience and analyze the systemic issues that plagued the schools; once as a student and once as an educator.
