TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Prior to gaining my Master's of Art in Teaching for Secondary Social Studies from Columbia University in New York City, I ran a volunteer tutoring organization in New Orleans for K-8 students. While receiving my Master's, I student taught full time in New York City at both PBAT and Regent Schools. After my Master's, I taught in a charter school in the Lower Bronx where I taught two sections of ICT, one section of ELLs, and two general education classes. After my sting in the Bronx, I went back to my home state of New Jersey and started teaching at Bayonne High School. In my years at Bayonne High School, I have taught low-readiness 9th grade world history, I have taught both general education and honors level of United States 2 Honors, and I recently piloted an Indigenous History of the United States elective. In addition to my class duties, I am a curriculum writer for my school focusing on the Asian American Pacific Islander mandate now present in NJ amongst other places. I also focus on comics and graphic novels in the social studies classroom.

MY TEACHING STYLE

Focus on project-based learning and student autonomy within the classroom. A particular focus is on non-traditional texts to learn about social studies.
