Daniel G. Nukala

Dan is a teacher of English for tenth through twelfth graders at Ramstein American High School. He holds a B.S. in English from Indiana University. Dan doesn't understand why everyone in the world doesn't want to be a teacher. "I'm talking about how wonderful it is to have a job that is different every single day, that brings a new set of challenges every single class period, that brings you into the lives of a hundred different personalities with a thousand different needs. I'm talking about a job that lets you adopt kids for one hour or one day and then send them home without having to cook for them or clean-up after them." His principal writes, "A pillar of the DoDEA Language Arts curriculum, he is sought after as a consultant and presenter. He is a teacher par excellence, larger than life, but always a key team player."
