Andre Danielson

After student teaching at Ida B. Wells High School, Andre Danielson returned to IBW as a paraprofessional in 1999. He completed his Bachelor's degree in History and minored in Political Science. Since then, he’s used his experience working in history and science and applied it to working in education, like helping students with disabilities in home care. Danielson  likes playing games and doing problem-solving when working with students, which helps him to be more creative and have fun. In his free time, Danielson is a big Portland Timbers and Tottenham Hotspurs soccer fan. Additionally, he does a lot of travelling and loves all kinds of games. If he weren’t an educator, “I would probably own and run a game store or a game company,” says Danielson.
