Vincent Massey's Stew Brown wins U of M Excellence in Teaching Award

Congratulations to Vincent Massey physics teacher Stew Brown, who was recently given an award by the University of Manitoba "For Significant Contribution to Excellence in Teaching."

Here is how the U of M describes the award: 

“The Students’ Teacher Recognition Reception (STRR) is an opportunity to celebrate teaching excellence. Recognizing that academic growth and development occurs over many years, each faculty nominates an outstanding graduating student, who then selects two teachers who have made important contributions to their education – one from Kindergarten to Grade 12 years and one from their years at the University of Manitoba.”

One of Mr. Brown's former students - Molly Bae - selected Vincent Massey teacher as her K-12 teacher, saying:

“ . . . I was your student in Grade 11+12 Physics and Grade 12 Math from 2015-2018. . . . I’m sending this long overdue email to thank you for your dedication to teaching and the positive impact you continue to have on young people, including the lasting impact you have had on my personal and professional growth. With graduation just around the corner, I have been honored with the opportunity to recognize one K-12 teacher and one University professor in my life that has contributed to my education. . . . ”
