At the end of the lesson, I will assign the homework and the students have until the next class to submit their assignment in the classroom.

I will provide my feedback and return it back to them.

Miss Devyn received her bachelor's degree from Brigham Young University - Idaho in 2012. She has taught ESL (English as a Second Language) and writing courses for the last 8 years. She was also featured on the Kelly Clarkson show where she spoke about how valuable video games and community are for children.
For much longer than 8 years, Miss Devyn has loved and played video games of all types, especially Pokemon. This makes her uniquely qualified to go into more depth about the different cultural influences in the Pokemon games we will be discussing in class.Reseñas
