What makes Robyn Wilson unique is the depth of her knowledge about Latin America's rich history and its complex cultural landscape. She clearly and deeply cares about people and places. I know firsthand of her immense interest and dedication to finding creative alternatives to global issues, as was the case with her thesis on the permaculture projects in El Salvador.
I have long been involved in teaching diverse community groups of all ages, and find Robyn's enthusiasm, persistence, and consistently insightful approach to student-centered community education a real breath of fresh and inspiring air.
Ryan Wilson is a uniquely talented individual who is an excellent role model for young people. His natural curiosity and passion for teaching and learning can be observed in his dedication and hard work. His brilliant, quick mind and creative approach make him one of the best educators I have had the pleasure to work with.
From my own experience of living 10 years in Southern Africa, I know of no one more capable of relating cross-culturally than Robyn. Warm and engaging, she learns from others by valuing their ideas and practices. She has combined her experience working in El Salvador with academic inquiry in order to better understand alternatives from other cultures for sustainable development. In our peace center, she takes the initiative in creating ways to promote peace education, within the curriculum, and across the community. Robyn works to combine education with community development--for all of us.
Ryan possesses a very thorough understanding of past and current issues in Latin America. Above all, he has a passion to teach and engage directly with any one of a number of cultures in the region. I have no doubt that he will combine his keen intellect, creative energy, and outstanding interpersonal skills in any undertaking that he pursues. Ryan Wilson is the dedicated and caring kind of teacher that today’s increasingly interdependent world needs to challenge students to become active, compassionate, and conscientious citizens. I give him my highest recommendation.
