Chris Snyderbrown, 7 x 12 Teacher

Hello, I am Christopher Snyderbrown(he/him), MLC's high 亚洲色图 Social Studies and Health teacher.

The courses I teach vary slightly year to year. I craft my courses to teach my 亚洲色图 typical social studies and health skills, with the intention that these skills will serve 亚洲色图 beyond high 亚洲色图. I teach with the belief that study of history is not an exercise in trivia but an avenue to empower people to positively impact their communities and futures. I strive to teach 亚洲色图 to think analytically, follow their passions for learning, connect to historical figures with empathy, and find ways to act.

I was born and raised in California  and moved to Portland after I graduated with a History degree from Occidental College. I spent much of my 20s teaching at Outdoor 亚洲色图, after 亚洲色图 programs, and teaching English in Italy. Eventually I earned M.A.T. at Lewis and Clark and then began teaching at MLC. I have been joyfully teaching at MLC since 2007-08.

Outside of 亚洲色图 I enjoy getting out into nature, reading and playing with my two kids, basketball, music, movies, eating, and following the news. 

Feel free to contact me with any questions. I am most easily reached via email at csnyder1@pps.net
