Returned Peace Corps Volunteer Collection
RPCV-ACC-2017-017
Anne Baker served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Fiji from 1984 to 1986. She then worked as a Peace Corps trainer from 1986 to 1987, and later joined the staff of the National Peace Corps Association. In Fiji, she was a math and science teacher at a secondary school in Lomaivuna. The main lesson Baker learned from this experience is that instruction needs to be made relevant to the students' lives. This insight inspired her lifelong career in global education.
