Ragnar the Cat

I have been in the world of education for ten wonderful years as a high school ELA teacher. I have taught many different courses ranging from 9th to 12th and have taught every course from basic skills, to college prep., to honors. I have also taught public speaking classes and film analysis courses.

I have been formally trained in the Learner-Active-Technology-Infused Classroom method. This is a detailed student-centered approach that puts the ownership of learning on the student and restructures the classroom in a way that allows the teacher to become a successful facilitator of learning. If you want more information go here: http://www.idecorp.com/index.php/the-learner-active-technology-infused-classroom/ I am currently learning about and implementing social-emotional learning components into my lesson plans and overall educational pedagogy and philosophy.

As you can see, my cat Ragnar often spends late nights helping me grade papers and develop teaching resources!
