I have been a teacher at John Jay for nine years.
My favorite book in our curriculum is The Catcher in the Rye. I love teaching
11th grade. The students make me laugh every day – even when I’m not in the
best mood.
I also coach Girls’ Tennis and Spring Track.
By exposing my students to different methods I want them to discover their
own style of learning – visual, linear – whatever it may be.
Each student should feel capable and confident writing and know how to make
sense of a literary work through plot structure and genre.
