I split my time at The Edge between teaching and content development. Most of my tutoring hours are spent either doing private lessons with SAT/ACT students or doing larger group classes. When I'm not teaching, I continually work on updating and improving our textbook content, which includes closely researching and examining past ACT and SAT exams and creating new educational content based on these tests.

High School Latin Teacher
-
2009 - 2012
When I began full-time at Towson High in 2009, I taught Latin I - III. In 2010 I added Latin IV and expanded enrollment to the point where a part-time teacher was also hired to cover two classes. In 2012 I taught Latin II - IV and had aspirations of continuing to grow the program to include AP Latin. Unfortunately the budget situation was not favorable for adding another full-time teacher. I also ran Towson's chapter of the Junior Classical League for outstanding Latin students. I even started an after-school organization for students interested in learning Ancient Greek.
