English Teacher Email My goal in every classroom is to help each student develop and demonstrate a deep comprehension of critical expression. Rather than highlight a person’s capacity to recite information, I care far more about the ability to stake a position and explain why their argument is correct. In an interconnected and information-based world full of rapidly changing technology, the ability to think for yourself is an essential component of any successful education. Ultimately, I believe that critical thinking and analysis are vital to a strong and just society. As an English teacher, I help students hone this skill by reading essential literature and various current non-fiction. We also work improving both written and spoken expression in our reflections upon these readings. The students then produce polished written products that demonstrate mastery of both grammar and the research process.
