About Me
Introduction:
English teacher excited to share my passion for the language! I am a graduate in journalism and leadership studies with experience as a newspaper writer and editor.
I love to learning new languages and the excitement of breakthroughs in education, and I want to work with students to give them those same experiences.
Outside of English, I am passionate about traveling and experiencing new cultures, photography, and music. I would love to bring some of my outside interests into the classroom to engage students even more.
I'm so excited for the opportunity to teach for your organization!
