I was born in El Paso, Texas, and have taught high school English for 28 years--21 years here at Jasper High School.  I also taught at the Job Corps of El Paso, South Oak Cliff High School in DISD, and Bending Oaks Private School of Dallas, and I find those experiences to be very helpful in my teaching style.  I I hold B.A. in Literature and Composition with a T.E.A. Secondary Teaching Cerificate from the University of Texas at El Paso and a M.S. in Instructional Design from the College of Cognitive Sciences at North Texas State University.  

I teach both on-level English II and English II Pre AP; we'll be focusing on student writing, reading, and critical thinking in order to prepare your student for the senior high and beyond.  I look forward to meeting your student, and please know that more specific information about both courses will be given out to your students the first week of school.
