The Story of the Unlucky Teacher and Her Koalas by Nina Johnson

The Story of the Unlucky Teacher and Her Koalas by Nina Johnson

The Story of the Unlucky Teacher and her Koalas is a must read for any educator who believes that all children have the ability to learn and be successful. The Unlucky Teacher's koalas are representative of the students who attend America's public schools-students who are poor and hungry, students who have learning disabilities or physical impairments, students who have been taught not to believe in themselves. Refusing to allow the stress of high stakes tests and humiliating comments from the community deter her, The Unlucky Teacher leads her koalas and their families to a triumphant victory that defies the societal stigmas that are pervasive in the koala bears' everyday lives.

Nina Johnson is a passionate educator who started her teaching career as a high school English teacher in 2001. As a former English teacher and literacy coach at the historic James Benson Dudley High School located in Greensboro, North Carolina, she cultivated her love for helping enhance students' lives by tapping into their natural ability to learn. Also, she impacted the lives of educators and students through her work as a middle and high school academic literacy coach for the Enrichment Region, and is currently having an even greater impact as the academic coach for the Southeastern Region of Guilford County Schools. Nina earned her AA in general studies from Patrick Henry Community College, her BA in English from Longwood College, and her MS in rehabilitation counseling from North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University.
