Jordan Bowen reports
TAMPA, Fla. - A former middle school teacher found not guilty last week of having sex with a student is talking to FOX 13 about his ordeal. Alex Hull says the allegations cost him his job and his reputation.
Alex Hull s passion for learning inspired him to become a teacher and he was living his passion as an eighth-grade teacher at Benito Middle School in New Tampa up until August of 2018, when two students came forward with allegations of misconduct. I tried to make every lesson fun and engaging. Something that would be memorable. That was not easy. That was something that took hours and hours of perfecting my craft and it s all for nothing now, Hull said.
