TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have eight years of experience teaching adult ESOL from beginner to advanced levels. I transitioned to public schools and have been teaching sixth-grade language arts at a STEM charter school for four years.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I have a student-centered teaching style that offers lots of choices for students to pursue personal interests and opportunities to demonstrate learning in ways that highlight their strengths. I love teaching short stories, poetry, and units about specific historical/literary periods.
