TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have been teaching high school English classes, including AP Language and Composition, for ten years.

I believe the key to a successful classroom rests on engaging content and assignments that are meaningful and relevant to our students. My mission is to reflect this philosophy in all of my products.

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

I received the "You Make a Difference" Award in my school; I presented a session on writing strategies at the Illinois New Teacher Collaborative Conference in 2017; I have been an AP Exam reader since 2018.

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY
