I have a Bachelor's degree in English from University of California, Santa Barbara. USCB's English Degree has an emphasis on British Literature, but I selected my optional courses deliberately to include a variety of literary and cultural studies, such as American Lit., Native-American Lit., Science Fiction, Detective Fiction, Creative Writing, and Drama. Since graduated (20 yrs ago), I have taught in various capacities: Middle School Language Arts teacher, Bilingual Assistant for ELL (English Language Learners) classrooms, and after school tutoring and mentoring programs. I am a National Board Certified Teacher and have many years experience with English Language Learners (ELL) and Exceptional Education students (ESE). I can tutor all aspects of Language Arts (Reading, Oral Expression, Writing, and Literature), but am strongest in teaching writing skills at secondary and post secondary levels. Literary Analysis, however, is my self-proclaimed passion. I believe that reading and writing is the backbone of education and the foundation of a promising career. As a teacher, I hold strong to the belief that all children learn at a different rate and in their own way. My goal is to discover their unique learning styles and preferences in order to channel the strategies that work best for the individual. I do not define myself by my career though, I am the mother of two strong-willed teenagers and wife of a dedicated military man. My idea of an ideal day, particularly a Sunday, would be to wake up (without the alarm clock), read a chapter or two of my chosen book over a cup of coffee, then take a long, brisk walk while surveying my neighbors landscaping talents. When I returned, I would probably play with my German Shepherd or coax my husband into fixing something around the house. Eventually, I would sit on the couch and watch football all afternoon with my family.
