Teaching Philosophy

I view writing as a lifelong academic, professional, personal, and civic activity, and I approach teaching writing with the assumption that students bring a wealth of knowledge and literacies with them into the classroom. As a teacher, my primary goal is for students to identify their own contexts and purposes for writing and and develop tools to effectively pursue them.
