"I traveled to Tanzania once before as a student. The experience changed my life! I learned that the residents of Tanzania are very strong and capable people - however, there are not always resources or pathways for development. TDS is working to help provide resources and build pathways. I have seen first hand how impactful TDS is, and am proud to contribute to this work in any way possible!" Matthew J. Simpson

Another semester down! I really like teaching, but especially enjoy digging into theory and giving my students the REAL GAME about what it all means as a practitioner. Sharing a couple of my fav responses from the course eval below - speaking to both sides of my "style" 💪🏿

"Hard class. Matt Simpson is a good dude and a good professor. He expects a lot out of his students."

"Mr. Simpson was a great teacher to have. He made everything in class easy to understand and relatable to things in life today. He cared about hearing our inputs and made sure everyone's voices were heard. It was one of the only classes I have taken in which I was excited to go to class every week. He would ask every week what we needed in order to get the best education and made sure to listen to our responses."
