Welcome to my teacher page.  I teach 7th Grade Honors English, and I am also the Adviser for both Journalism and Yearbook.  I did my undergraduate degree in Education at Azusa Pacific University and my Masters in Education at the University of Redlands.  This is the start of my 28th year of teaching and my 19th year teaching English here at Cope Middle School.  I am passionate about my subject and hope to instill in all of my students a deeper appreciation of the language.  I look forward to working with all of my students to help them improve their reading comprehension and their writing skills.
