Rebeca Millam grew up in California but also attended school in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico where she was born.  Mrs. Millam is very passionate about teaching history and has explored and enjoyed other roles within education.   As History Department Chair working in Costa Mesa, California, she was able to contribute to the teaching and learning of history by writing curriculum and district wide assessments, volunteering as a master teacher to provide assistance to new teachers, and leading the history department to providing quality instruction for all students.  

As a Master Teacher Fellow and Consultant for associations such as the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History, AP College Board, and the UCI History Project, Mrs. Millam facilitated seminars and workshops assisting history teachers across the country in developing their skills in teaching history.  Mrs. Millam enjoys presenting her lessons at different history conferences where she also connects with other educators to further refine her skills in teaching. As an Assistant Principal, Mrs. Millam supported and developed academic programs for the benefit of students and teachers.
  
Mrs. Millam loves traveling with her husband, collecting and wearing vintage clothing from the 1940’s-1960’s, dancing to 50’s rock & roll, and reading a good book alongside her two cats. 

“Through the study of history, we will create students' awareness, curiosity, and critical thinking skills to develop proactive problem solvers in the 21st century.”

Gregory Schwab
 
博格思历史老师
B.A., University of California, Riverside

格雷戈里·施瓦布(Gregory Schwab)来自加州洛杉矶。我对历史和社会研究一直有浓厚的兴趣,希望能够将同样的热情带到课堂上。我很幸运,我的父母支持我接触世界各地的文化和习俗。他们曾在我小时候带我去欧洲和亚洲旅行,包括中国。这些经历给了我一个全球性的世界观,对我的生活产生了很大的影响。在拿到加州大学河滨分校社会科学本科学位后,我决定从事教育行业,希望能够在教授历史学科的同时,教导学生们从如何历史中吸取经验教训,帮助他们成为改变未来世界的人。期待与您见面!

Gregory Schwab is from Los Angeles, California. I always exhibited a strong interest in History and Social Studies and I hope to inspire the same passion in my classroom. I was fortunate to have parents who made it their mission to expose me to cultures and customs around the world. They took me traveling across Europe and Asia as a child, including stops in China. These experiences gave me a global world outlook that has had a great impact on my life. After I graduated from the University of California Riverside with a Bachelors in Social Studies, I decided to pursue a career in education with the hope that I can educate my students about what has happened before our time, so that the youth of today can learn from the past and become effective leaders of tomorrow. I look forward to working with you and your family!
