Biography
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 served as head of the English Department for 15 years. Currently I teach freshmen and AP English Lit and Comp to seniors; however, I've taught every grade from 7-12. I've also been an AP Reader for the Lit exam as well as scoring essays for SAT.
