I teach 3 different classes at DCTS. I provide education and instruction in a student-oriented learning environment for 12th graders in a college preparatory setting focusing on the British Literature canon. Second, I instruct a multiple level classroom of juniors in the American Literature canon with special emphasis on the Keystone Examinations. Finally, I teach multiple grade levels in the art of public speaking and speech preparation. UPDATE: I am no longer teaching Public Speaking. Instead, I am leading a college in the high school class in connection with Harrisburg Area Community College, We will cover English 101 & 102. Show less

Aug 2002 - Jun 2004
I worked in a multi-level special education language arts classroom for grades 6-8. While serving as a paraeducator, my responsibilities included assisting in tutoring and one on one classroom instruction to supplement the teacher's lesson plans. I volunteered to follow several students into other classes to assist in note taking and to further improve their education.
