I am a current graduate student of Southern New Hampshire University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in English from the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff. For the past 18 years, I have taught middle and high school English, grades 7-12. While I have taught a wide range of humanity subjects, I am most passionate about English, Literature, and Journalism. It has been my pleasure to support students with reading literature, composition writing, and poetry. It is my honest belief that education allows one to change his or her life circumstances. It provides the opportunity to grow academically as well as socially. It also prepares the learner for real-world experiences through reading and hands-on projects. I endeavor to support my students' decisions to excel in their academic ventures and I hope to create enjoyable learning opportunities to bridge their intellectual gaps.
