English Language Arts
I am an experienced educator and writer with a strong foundation in English, writing, and curriculum development. I hold a Master of Fine Arts in Poetry from Columbia University, where I honed my writing skills and developed the ability to give and receive thoughtful, constructive feedback in a collaborative academic setting.
In addition to my academic background, I have professional experience in publishing, including editing and content development, which strengthened my ability to adapt and refine a wide range of texts while effectively communicating with diverse audiences.
As a teacher, I have worked with students of varying ages, backgrounds, and learning needs, in environments ranging from low-income urban schools to academic and professional settings. These experiences have equipped me with strong communication, organizational, and leadership skills, as well as the ability to design engaging lessons and support diverse learners.
I bring a flexible, creative, and student-centered approach to teaching, combining strong writing expertise with the ability to foster critical thinking, confidence, and meaningful academic growth.
