I graduated with a BA in English and Spanish for secondary school teaching.  I have always loved reading and teaching book studies to students of all ages.  I have taught English, Spanish, ESL, history, and religion classes to students ages 7-18 in the public schools and in private settings. In an effort to better understand and teach World War II and religion classes I have taken a 10-week course in Introduction to Judaism.   I have taught many book studies to ages 8-17 including but not limited to: The Old Man and the Sea, Lord of the Flies, Where the Red Fern Grows, Badge of Courage, The Great Gatsby, The Call of the Wild, The Outsiders, The Scarlet Letter, Tom Sawyer, Maniac Magee, and others.  I am currently teaching Keeper of the Lost Cities and Fablehaven book clubs on Outschool for ages 10-14.  Reading is one of my passions and I love sharing that with my children and my students.
