About Me

About Me

Bio

With a B.A. in English and a Masters in English Education, I have taught for over 30 years, most of which have been at a boys school where I also serve as head of the English Department. For the last 15 years, I've taught AP English Lit and Comp to seniors. During school breaks, my husband and I enjoy traveling; we've been to five continents. Our favorite trips have been to New Zealand and China.

Interests

My interests include travel, computers, baseball, needlework, golden retrievers, crossword and jigsaw puzzles, and cooking.
