Six-Time Citizen Teacher Kristin Browning-Mezel teaches positive body image

Kristin Browning-Mezel (far right) is teaching her sixth, yes that’s right, sixth apprenticeship with Citizen Schools New Mexico this spring called Beautiful Girls.  Students in Kristin’s apprenticeship are learning about the importance of positive body image and building self-confidence, how to handle bullies and navigate difficult social situations related to middle school.  Students are also encouraged to think critically about the media and how it effects their daily lives.  Not only does Kristin teach such a powerful apprenticeship, but she’s been an amazing resource sharing helpful teaching tips with her fellow Citizen Teachers at the Van Buren Middle School.
