Educational Thoughts - I believe that all students have the ability to be great in some area and it is our job as teachers to help the students find that skill, and help them embrace it.

Why I’m Here - I have a longstanding love of all things having to do with stories. I love reading because it gives you the ability to come as close to living someone else’s story as you can. I hope to share this love with others as it was shared with me.

Lesson Creation I have done extensive planning for work in planning for English classrooms with all types of learners, including special ed. and ELL students. I have done a great deal of my work on the plays of Arthur Miller. I am fluent in the technological skills needed to be an effective teacher in the digital age and have worked extensively with interactive lesson planning. I feel I have found the common ground between the old and new schools of teaching.
