...for students who don't love the books they are assigned, I believe it is important, as a life skill, to know how to discuss literature critically.

When I am not reading, writing, or teaching, I love to travel. In the past year alone I've been to...

...our less keen abilities rather than let 'em get us down. We don't have to excel at everything to succeed in life, and the same goes for school.

More than this, I enjoy using my experience and knowledge to...

Writing is an intimate expression of oneself and I look to grow student abilities through...
