I am currently working as an instructional assistant where I can help utilize my skills as an educator/mentor and make a difference in students' education and lives. I also spent several years working as a tech writer using my English writing skills obtained through my years as a writer, educator, and continuous learner. My passion is to teach high school English Language Arts and mentor those students to succeed in their education and outside the classroom. I hold a Massachusetts Professional Teaching license and have several years of experience teaching in Germany and the United States. I have been successful with opening up my students' minds to creative writing and better ways to interpret complicated literature.I am looking forward to the next opportunity to continue my teaching career.
