About Me

I have a Master of Arts degree in English, an Education Specialist degree, and a Doctorate of Education. I've taught high school English for 24 years, and I still love it! I enjoy all of the subjects I teach, (I teach Speech and ACT Prep as well as English) but I especially love literature -- interpreting it and writing about it -- and grammar. I had an amazing grammar teacher who taught me that grammar makes sense, and I like turning on that light for others. I like meeting students, hearing about their challenges, and supporting them as they strive toward their goals. I've had great success helping students prepare for standardized tests, essays, and presentations. When I'm not teaching, I love to read, crochet, watch true crime documentaries, and hang out with my dog and family.
