I received a bachelor's degree in maritime studies from Texas A&M with minors in anthropology and English. I also have a master's degree in professional education from the University of Texas. I am certified to teach grades  7-12 (middle and high school level) English/Language Arts in the state of Texas.

제공되는 평가
Unless requested by the learner's grownup, a letter grade will not be provided. Assessment will be a continuous, informal process in which I review gameplay results and submitted assignments then provide feedback and opportunities for extra practice, if necessary. Certificates of completion for the class are provided at the end of the ten weeks.
