I have a bachelors and masters in English and certificate in Digital Humanities from Texas A&M University in May 2021. I wrote my thesis on Christianized Germanic heroism in Tolkien’s Middle-earth legendarium. I am also a member of the international Tolkien Society. I worked for three semesters as a graduate assistant teacher for undergraduate courses in literature and technical writing. I also have many years of experience working with children from freelance tutoring elementary through high school and volunteering with Girl Scouts and church.

Quotes used in class may contain spoilers for The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion. Quotes may also include poetic descriptions of battles (never in graphic detail—Tolkien doesn’t write that way) or hints at the sense of loss that pervades his Middle-earth writings.
Examples will come from the following books by J.R.R. Tolkien: The Hobbit The Lord of the Rings 1. The Fellowship of the Ring 2. The Two Towers 3. The Return of the King The Silmarillion (edited by Christopher Tolkien)
