I am grateful to the Moodle community for continually inspiring me to learn more about educational technologies and fostering an environment where every voice contributes to building that community.

After teaching at an American school in Torreon, Mexico for four years he moved to Bulgaria where he and his colleagues pioneered the use of Moodle at the Anglo American School of Sofia.

I would like to thank two members of the Anglo American School of Sofia; Linda Dimitrov for her past and continued assistance with all things technical, and Jim Leahy who has provided me with constant encouragement in my professional endeavors. I am also grateful to all the students at the Anglo American School of Sofia who taught me as much as I taught them. Finally a special thanks to my wife Anette and my son Tijs for everything.
