As a high-school English teacher, I needed a quick way to grade essays! I created this rubric for myself, and then I converted it to a Google Form. Students (and myself) like to see percentages instead of 1-5 of a typical rubric. I can then quickly average the percentages together for an overall grade.

Experience
I teach college composition and literature, AP Literature, 12th grade English, Pre-AP English, Creative Writing, and Mythology.
Teaching style
For the last two years, I have been shifting more of my curriculum to digital content to keep my older students engaged. Many students choose to take online courses when they reach 12th grade, and I have been moving more and more of my content online to help with flexibility needs with my older students who choose to stay in the classroom. This helps students transition into college where online discussion boards and submissions are expected.
My own education history
I hold a B.A. in Creative Writing with a minor in History. I also hold an M.A. in Teaching, and an M.A. in English with T.E.S.L.
Additional biographical information
I work at a rural school. Many of my students work, pay their own bills, and care for other family members. It has been hard finding resources for this grade-level. I hope to help others who struggle to find a balance between student needs and academic standards.
