 TEACHING STYLE 
    - I want my students to LOVE to read and learn.  If this is accomplished, I feel like I have prepared them for their future more than any singular book or ELA lesson could! 
    - I want my students to participate.  This means that there is time built into every class where they can ask questions and converse with each other and I am merely there to pose the conversation-starter (if needed) and facilitate.
    - I have "lectures" but even those include time within for students to share their thoughts!
    - While students will be challenged to think deeply, their perspective will always be encouraged and celebrated.  I hope that students feel as welcomed to think as they are challenged in their thinking. 
    - While the course work listed below may look overwhelming and challenging at times, I never want a student to feel overwhelmed! I am here to help.
    - I welcome and encourage questions during class but also throughout the week!  Message me in the "Conversation" tab of Outschool and I will do my very best to reply within 24-hours... but keep in mind, I am living a traveling-life so (because of travel-days and/or bad connection) sometimes that can stretch to 48
    - The idea of providing a grade and then moving on is not my style.  If a student is willing to persevere, I want to keep working with them until the learning goals have been achieved.
