Gramática de secundaria: Cómo evitar la estructura incorrecta de las oraciones

Hi! I teach a variety of English classes for elementary school through high school. I like to use multiple teaching strategies that appeal to all different learning styles in order to make learning fun and interesting.  I like to laugh and have fun in class, but I also strive to inspire my students to think critically and write well. I love to talk, but I don't like to lecture.  I want to hear from the learners!  My classes are interactive and full of opportunities for learners to share their thoughts and ideas. 

I am a certified English teacher with thirteen years of experience teaching secondary English. I graduated with honors from Lander University with a degree in English, and then I received my teaching degree from Coastal Carolina University three years later.  My first job was at a public school in South Carolina, where I taught for seven years. During my time there, I received the Golden Apple Award from a local tv station after being nominated by one of my students. 

Then, in 2012 my family and I moved to the Middle East where I taught high school English and fifth grade English at a private school in Kuwait.  After 6 years in the Middle East, we moved to Taiwan, and I worked online with ESL students in order to help them improve their English grammar and writing skills. I have really enjoyed working with so many wonderful students from all over the world!  While overseas, I continued my college courses in order to keep my teaching certificate updated and to explore new teaching ideas and strategies that I can apply to my current lessons. 

We moved back to the US in 2020, and I went back to classroom teaching  in 2022. I currently teach 10th, 11th, and 12th grade English classes at a local high school. However, I still enjoy teaching my Outschool classes, and I make sure to make time for my online students also. When I’m not teaching in some capacity or spending time with my family, I like trying new recipes, reading, and hiking. Fun fact about me:  I LOVE to travel and experience different cultures.  I have visited 17 countries so far and would love to add more to that list one day.
