Minnesota Teaching Certificate in English/Language Arts
Master's Degree in English from Western Governors University
Hello! I’m Terry Brown, a dedicated and compassionate K-12 special education teacher based in the Twin Cities area. With a deep love for learning and teaching, I bring energy and patience to every classroom I enter.
I hold an MA in Teaching English Education (Secondary) and an MA in English and Creative Writing from Southern New Hampshire University, as well as a BA in English from the University of Minnesota – Twin Cities. Over the years, I’ve taught English Language Arts at both middle school and high school levels, and I currently teach a variety of courses, including Preschool classes, Upper Elementary and Middle School Literature (both Fiction and Non-Fiction), and Science.
In our time together, my students and I develop critical reading skills, actively analyze age-appropriate texts, and discover how literature connects to the world around us. I specialize in fostering close and active reading strategies—you can bet we’ll be marking up those books! Watching students make meaningful connections to what they read is one of the most rewarding parts of my work.
Outside the classroom, I’m a lifelong learner and passionate writer. I enjoy honing my teaching craft and creating stories—right now, I’m working on a children’s chapter book!
I’m excited to share my love for reading and writing with my students and help them find joy in their learning journeys.Reviews
