Robin Pawlak
An English language arts teacher for 31 years in Alberta, Robin retired in 2016. He has since authored two novels for children. He enjoys the calm, quiet life of a writer, but also nips out of his office as often as possible to venture back into the world of education, having shared his expertise with thousands of teachers at conventions over the past 7 years. And of course he loves visiting schools regularly to get some inspiration from some of his favourite people—his young readers.
