TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I teach 8th and 9th grade English and have been teaching since 2009. I have taught English, French, and ESL in France, Germany, and the United States.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I use a lot of portfolios and projects in my teaching. I love watching students collaborate and create together, so I use a lot of peer feedback, conferencing, and group work. I also incorporate public speaking and drama in my classroom to get students up and moving.
