About Me

I am an English literature educator with a passionate commitment to engaging students in the careful reading and critical analysis of literature. I am skilled in the design of teaching the close reading of texts to foster a deep understanding of the ways writers use language to provide both meaning and pleasure for readers. Considering a work's structure, style, and themes as well as such smaller-scale elements as the use of figurative language, imagery, symbolism, and tone are the focus of my instruction. Writing is an integral part of my teaching core and I am comfortable teaching expository, analytical, and argumentative essay writing keys to successful writing. I believe in coaching students to success and am here to help you to succeed.
