Experience Summary
I have extensive experience in writing/composition from years in marketing and public relations. Although I do not have my permanent teaching certification, I have extensive experience in teaching English/Language Arts and literature to middle school and high school students and have other teaching experience at the university level.
Teaching Style
I try to make things more interesting with activities and significant interaction, avoiding just talking at my students. Engaging would be my style.
My Hobbies
Live theatre, museums, reading, cooking.
Other Comments
I have a love of teaching and treat all of my students with care and respect, realizing they all learn at different levels and in different ways. Even though I do not have the certification, other than substitute, I have an innate ability to relate to my students and even have many teachers request me to the point where I can go weeks subbing every day!
