Students

As your English teacher, I want you all to understand that I do not get up early every morning (after a night of grading papers and preparing tomorrow's lesson), drive across town to school, and open my classroom door just to stand in front of you and talk.  

I am your English teacher because I want to learn from you all as much as you're here to learn from me.  Each day, the discussions we have in class open my eyes to things I hadn't previously thought of.  Year after year, I have the incredible pleasure of engaging in thoughtful and critical conversations with like-minded individuals who share the same passion for reading and writing as I do.  You all are the reason I come to class, and I love every minute of it.  Thank you!
