  \"What's in Your Jar?\"​; \"Do We NEED to Buy the Book?\"

  I'm a veteran educator with over 25 years of teaching experience at both the secondary and higher ed levels. I am a program reviewer for a large accrediting body and am very knowledgeable in curriculum development

  assessments

  alignment

  program revision/design

  etc. I have been a program coordinator

  instructional coach

  professor

  and have worked extensively with multiple school districts in diverse locations to redesign curriculum to meet both student needs and state/federal standards. I love working with teachers to enhance the learning of all students. \n\nWhile my PhD is in English with a specialization primarily in American Literature

  I am by practice a generalist (meaning I can teach just about anything related to critical thinking

  pedagogy

  literary analysis

  composition or rhetoric). I am also an assessment and standards specialist and enjoy data digs. \nI love guiding others towards higher-level thinking and view myself more as a guide than a teacher. I believe everyone has the potential to succeed and to excel; I strive to be the positive force that helps them to develop their full potential.
