Hello.

This is my 20th year teaching in the Yough School District, and I have spent the past 16 years teaching AP English at the high school.

A long time ago, I graduated from the University of Notre Dame with a degree in English Literature. I later earned my Masters degree in English from the University of Maine. I feel very fortunate that I earned both my degrees in Literature as I think it allows me to help students make literary and historical connections through the literature we study in class.

I have additionally attended a couple of teaching conferences that focused on specifically teaching AP English, and I feel these conferences enable me to help students learn about literature and definitely help me give students the fundamental literary and philosophical knowledge they will be expected to know as they move on to the University level.

This year I will also be teaching English 11, and I also coordinate the high school Gifted program, where I help Gifted students enrich their particular areas of strength and interest and where I coordinate numerous events and competitions where they can display their knowledge and strengths.
