About The Teacher

I am a proud alumnus of Howard County.  After going through Atholton
Elementary, Clarksville Middle School, and Hammond High School, I studied
English at Georgetown University.  A great deal of time was spent playing for
the Women's Basketball Team where I was able to travel to different parts of
the country and the world to represent my school as a student-athlete.

I love studying and teaching English, because I love words.  Communication and
looking at the way others communicate through writing and speaking are
complicated activities.  I find joy in seeing my students becoming better
communicators.  I also look forward to learning so many ideas from my students
as we work collectively in the classroom.

Mission For The Class

The students in Seventh Grade English will participate in daily learning
activities that stimulate their awareness of how the English language works. 
Through reading and studying literature, composing various products, and
expressing ideas in a variety of forms, students will become more adept
communicators.
