Here is a bit of information about me. I am an East Carolina graduate with a BS in English Education. My goal for all my students is to use all aspects of English to make each individual a better citizen prepared for adulthood.
By learning Literature, students will learn about common life choices and problems people encounter and how to best deal with those situations. We will also focus on writing which will prepare students to have strong, effective writing outside of the classroom. Grades will consist of class participation through discussions, weekly vocabulary and spelling quizzes, and writing projects ranging from papers to group presentations.
Strong writing cannot be achieved if the basics, such as spelling, are not reviewed, and writing can be made stronger through word choice which is addressed in our vocabulary lessons. Literature is best understood by reading, discussing, and analyzing through writing. Therefore, my lessons will focus on learning and improving these skills.
I believe every student can succeed in my classroom if we work together. Therefore, I am including my contact information below for both students and parents to contact me with any questions or concerns and to schedule appointments to ensure every student's success.
Please, ONLY call between 3:30 p.m.-5:30 p.m. Emails will be answered within 24 hours if sent Monday-THursday and within 48 hours if sent Friday- SUnday.
