7 years as a middle school English & remediation teacher, now a private tutor.
In the classroom, I believe it should be student-centered with open discussion with higher level inquiry. I also love integrating technology and making my lessons interactive. My projects are fun, yet productive! I pride myself on innovative, collaborative, and relevant learning in the classroom.
