Dara Miller Email & Phone Number

I am an experienced English teacher with a passion for dynamic and challenging Language Arts instruction grounded in principles of justice, empathy, and civic mindfulness. I focus on community building in the classroom and in my professional environment, and value collaboration and teacher leadership along with rigorous, creative, and culturally responsive education. I believe that literature and writing should serve as mirrors for our own identities and windows into those of others, and that engaging students in authentic study of the humanities empowers them to be critical readers of the world who can engage both courageously and compassionately with their communities.Specialties: Writing Instruction, American / World / British Literature, Curriculum Design, Instructional Tech, Advanced Placement, Differentiation, Arts Education, Facing History & Ourselves, Journalism, Teacher Mentorship, Teacher Training, Professional Development Design & Coordination
