About Me
English Teacher
Bio
I have taught for nine years. I started out teaching 8th grade at a small parochial school, moved to an inner-city school teaching sophomore English and Theater for a year and have been at my current school for six years. At my current school, I have taught College Prep Freshmen English, AP Language and Composition, General Seniors, Theater, Public Speaking, Creative Writing, and will be teaching Literacy to Sophomores next year.
Interests
I used to love running but have gotten out of shape since having my daughter who is two. I do still run now and again though -- just not with same enthusiasm. I also love boating and dogs. I'm involved with a few animal rescues where I either foster abandoned dogs to prepare them for homes or I transport dogs from kill-shelters to rescue agencies throughout the States and Canada.
