\"This<\/a>
This could be you!<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

My name is John Hesting and I have been at SPC since 2006 where I teach at St. Petersburg Collegiate High School.\u00a0\u00a0 I teach Honors World History and Honors Economics, and sponsor the Student Government Association, Multicultural Club, and Ultimate Frisbee team. On the college level, I teach American National Government and International Relations. This will be my third trip to Rome and Florence with International Programs.<\/p>\n

My Bachelors and Masters degrees are in Political Science.\u00a0 I am currently working on another Masters in American History.\u00a0 I will then move on to my PhD in History when the bank account refills and my self-destructive tendencies return.<\/p>\n

I live in Pasco County with my incredible wife and two wonderful children, two Labradors, one three-legged Jack Russell terrier, one chicken, two fish, and one cockatiel.\u00a0 We live on the water and enjoy it immensely, kayaking, boating, swimming, fishing, and facing down the occasional hurricane scare. I am originally from Philadelphia and as an ardent Philly sports fan; I spend lots of time disappointed, frustrated and cranky.<\/p>\n

I look forward to sharing this incredible experience with you all and engaging in vigorous discussion where we will examine International Relations and search out the truth in a collaborative and creative process in one of the most exciting cities in the world.\u00a0 No matter how many times I go I learn something new and have another enriching experience. Italy will expand your worldview and help add to your definition of being truly alive!<\/p>\n

I have met all the students already but I look forward to meeting your families and getting to know all of you!<\/p>\n
