About The Teacher
I have taught every level of High School English in a span of 2 1/2 years in Shreveport, Louisiana at Captain Shreve High School. I directed the Drama Club, taught the Gifted and Talented, and obtained Library Certification while I was there. I have also worked at Barnes and Noble since I graduated high school and at Little Walnut Creek, an Austin Public Library. Since working at Star for the past 2 years, I have gotten my Texas Certification and taught 9th and 10th grade English as well as Drama.

Mission Label:


Mission
I want my students to be exposed to a wide variety of literature from all over the world. To do this, we will read many different literary works from many different time periods, participate in class discussion on a daily basis, and have tests that evaluate our understanding of the written word. I also want my students to be able write, speak and understand the English Language competently. For this reason, we will have research projects throughout the year that expose us to others' perspectives of the literature we read for class as well as grammar and vocabulary used in an applied setting.
