“[Students] should be well-prepared for class, take pride in their work, and respect one another.”
Class: US History I CPE, AP European History
About Me: “I love the variety of topics in US History. I particularly enjoy helping my students make connections between early American documents–like the Declaration of Independence and Constitution–and our rights and responsibilities in today’s society.”
FUN FACT: “I was the kind of student who didn’t leave class to go to the bathroom unless it was an emergency.” [wink-wink]
“Students can expect to be challenged to work hard but they can expect me to work equally hard to help them learn and develop their skills.”
Class: English 1 Honors, Asian Literature
About Me: “I love teaching English, especially having discussions about the works we read, exploring different characters and themes that connect to real life and build empathy.”
FUN FACTS: “I have an odd ability to correctly guess peoples’ astrological signs, which I remember forever, much longer than their names.”
“If I was not a teacher, I would be traveling the world, reporting on different countries and their culture, philosophies, and traditions.”
“If you focus and believe in your goals, you can achieve anything.”
Class: Algebra 1 CP, Honors Geometry
About Me: “I love that I teach all freshmen. I love seeing them grow from the beginning to the end of the school year and knowing I had them from the beginning of their time here. I love being able to challenge all my students and seeing them rise to the challenge, but I also love working towards setting a solid foundation and supporting them so that they find success in future math courses. If they secretly fall in love with math in the process, that’s a plus!”
FUN FACT: “If I weren’t a teacher, I would probably be working in a bakery because I love baking or a real estate agent because I love seeing the potential in a property.”
