TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Five years' experience teaching a smattering of World Literature, American Literature, Public Speaking, Journalism, English 1

MY TEACHING STYLE

Facilitator -- I help students learn and apply knowledge for themselves! I want my students to be able to think critically rather than depending on me to give them the "right" answers. I emphasize inquiry and exploration in my classroom.

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

Voted "Funniest Teacher" by one of my Speech classes during our End-of-the-Year Awards speeches. I printed the award myself, so the credibility is questionable at best.

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

BA in English with a minor in Secondary Education

ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears. I come to sell my stuff on TpT.
