Lit Guru

I have 5 years of teaching experience at the high school and university level in English Literature and Creative Writing.

My lessons and materials are informative and fun! I provide background info for context for all my texts and emphasize creative and interactive approaches to the material.

I have a BA in English Literature from The Ohio State and an MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Mississippi.
