What I'm looking for

I am looking for a collaborative environment that values innovative teaching methods and supports professional growth.

I am a dedicated English instructor with nine years of experience teaching a diverse range of learners in English language, composition, and literature. My passion lies in engaging students and maximizing their learning through innovative materials and teaching methods. I have a proven track record of expanding student understanding of complex texts and fostering a supportive learning environment.

Currently, I am an English Instructor at Hondros College of Nursing, where I lead in-depth discussions and assign exploratory essays to help students articulate their knowledge effectively. My experience at Southern New Hampshire University and Post University has further honed my ability to employ diverse teaching approaches tailored to students of all abilities. I am committed to continuous improvement and utilizing technology to enhance the learning experience.
