IB Literature one-pager analysis guide
In order to guide the students towards the possibilities of what to analyze within literature, I created this one-pager to assist them with terms and ideas to consider. While not fully comprehensive, it certainly gave them a place to start and ideas to foster their process of unpacking literary works.

Teaching style
My teaching focuses on how can we foster confident, empathetic problem-solvers who explore solutions to issues in their lives. I strive to provide learning tools that encourage curiosity, creativity, critical thinking and collaboration in the global classroom.
