High school literature goals: elevate reading comprehension, foster awareness, build confidence with bold interpretation, and, above all, cultivate a joy for reading.

~ over 20 years teaching experience 
~ 16 years as a Texas public school teacher
~ I'm a certified English teacher; K - 12

Homework Offered
~ Unfinished reading comprehension questions and prompts become optional self-paced independent homework.
~ Homework is optional and becomes the responsibility of the learner.
~ Answer keys for multiple-choice questions are released the following week.
~ You'll receive a session summary and a PDF file containing all related materials at the END of each session on the 'Classroom" page. 
0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Informal: Informal assessments are a natural part of my teaching style. 

Formal: I end the reading session with multiple-choice reading comprehension questions. Learners will provide their answers privately through the ZOOM chat. I use this live ZOOM interaction to help learners apply comprehension and deductive reasoning in order to select an appropriate answer. 
Grades Offered
Grades and certificates are offered BY REQUEST.
~ Grades will be a generalized single grade for participation and the completion of the optional homework. You will not receive individual grade for each assignment.
~ Certificates will include the hours completed. 

I will screenshare and provide all of the materials for each session. 

IMPORTANT: I do not provide any materials BEFORE the session. Learners will receive the annotated copy of the text at the end of the 50-minute session.
