Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Political Science and Government from University of California Riverside
Associate's Degree in Science from Sacramento City College
I have been teaching Honors English 11, World History, and Creative Writing to high school students for the past 1.5 years at a private high school, fostering critical thinking, analytical skills, and creative expression. In addition to teaching Honors English, I also oversee the writing tutor program at the school, which trains Honors students as peer tutors. I hold a bachelor's and a master's degree in history and public policy, providing me with a strong foundation in research, historical analysis, and effective communication. Beyond the classroom, I host a life skills cooking channel that combines history with culinary arts, teaching people to cook while exploring historical contexts. This unique approach allows me to connect with diverse learners, making complex topics engaging and accessible both inside and outside the classroom.
