Language Arts can be FUN!
My style will be flexible to suit the needs of each individual student. The love I have for reading and writing will be shared with the lucky students I work with.

15 years of High School English experience

I always felt that I was at my best working in one on one situations and would love to be able to do so again. During the course of my 15 years, I taught... Read more
