Essay Feedback Form for Any Essay

TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Married teachers, Stephen and Kayla, have been teaching English Language Arts for over a decade. Three of those years were spent at an American international school in China. During that time, Kayla and Stephen have taught everything from 3rd grade to 7th grade Pre-AP, ESL, and AP Lit and Comp and every grade of English in between.

MY TEACHING STYLE

Our teaching style is "guide on the side," but things are explained as clearly--and as visually--as possible. We aim for engagement with students.

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

My mom said I was "most handsome."

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

Sam Houston State University--eat 'em, Kats!

ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

Before Stephen decided to pursue English education, he studied art, photography and graphic design. He applies the skills he learned in graphic design to our products to make visually appealing, clear products. We live in San Antonio with our daughter.
