TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have taught high school English for 7 years. I have taught all levels: Honors, On-level, Inclusion/Co-Taught, Self-Contained. First semester of adjunct teaching.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I am a huge fan of the Charlotte Danielson framework. I like when students take ownership of their learning, whether by choosing the assignment they complete, creating the assessment tools, etc.
