As an English Literature educator, my mission is to ignite a lifelong passion for literature in my students by fostering a deep appreciation for the power of words. With a rich background in both classic and contemporary texts, I strive to create an engaging, dynamic learning environment where students feel inspired to think critically, express their ideas boldly, and connect deeply with the stories that have shaped our world.

I believe that literature is more than just a subject—it’s a gateway to understanding the human experience. Through the texts we explore, I aim to help students discover not only the beauty of language but also the profound insights it offers into society, culture, and the self. I prioritize creating a space where students feel safe to share their interpretations, ask questions, and, most importantly, feel valued in their unique perspectives.

With experience teaching diverse students in both traditional and online settings, I’ve honed the ability to tailor my teaching style to meet each individual’s learning needs, ensuring that every student feels supported and empowered to reach their fullest potential. Whether we’re discussing the tragic depth of Shakespeare, the social critiques in modern novels, or the timeless themes of human nature, my goal is to guide students toward not just understanding the text—but also finding personal meaning and connection in it.

I am committed to making learning interactive, accessible, and inspiring, and I thrive on the challenge of making complex literary concepts come to life in a virtual classroom. My approach is rooted in patience, creativity, and a genuine love for the subject, and I look forward to partnering with students in their educational journey
