2017 Tennessee Teacher of the Year: Derek Voiles

Derek Voiles teaches English-Language Arts in the middle with his seventh-grade classroom located in East Tennessee, and he is the 2017 Tennessee Teacher of the Year. Derek dresses the part every day in order to lead by example and show his students the high expectations for excellence he requires. Derek is only in his 7th year as a teacher but has the model classroom that other teachers observe in hopes to replicate for themselves. He received his Bachelor of Arts in English-Literature and a Master of Arts in Teaching English as a Second Language (TESOL) from Carson-Newman University; he also received his degree as an Education Specialist in Instructional Leadership from Lincoln Memorial University and wrapping up his Doctorate from East Tennessee State University. These are just a few of the accomplishments in Derek's busy life, and we will learn about others in this episode from another great leader in his field.
