Teaching style
My classroom operates through a mix of Socratic seminars, project-based learning, and intensive close-reading exercises, and as much writing as I can fit into a semester. I prioritize structured, printable frameworks that force students to move beyond surface-level observations toward sophisticated, independent analysis.

If you are looking for no-nonsense, high-impact materials that are ready to print and implement, that's what I'm looking to make.
