Fran Chardo's Teaching Experience

Teaching a subject helps a person learn more about it.  I find that I get a great deal out of teaching and I hope my students learn a lot from me.  Teaching makes me a better prosecutor and it makes me a better leader in the District Attorney's Office.  Developing the skills of young prosecutors is an important part of the job of the District Atttorney.  Here is a summary of my teaching experience in addition to what I do everyday in the office.
