Welcome students and parents to my Cordova High School webpage! I'm very excited to begin the 2022-2023 school year with you!
A Little About Me
I have been teaching High School English for 11 years, and this year will mark my fourth year with Cordova High School. My passion for teaching, literature, and composition runs so deep that I went to graduate school twice to earn master's degrees in English, Rhetoric and Composition, and in Educational Anthropology. Teaching English language literature and composition is truly my passion, but when I'm not buried nose-deep in a book, magazine, or newspaper . . . or student writing, you will usually find me trying my hand at writing my own fiction, playing with my dog, Redford, and travelling with my wife to wherever we can escape to.
On top of teaching and literature and travel, I love languages generally, and I speak, adequately, three of them: Polish, Spanish, and English. Polish, long ago, was once my first, dominant language. Both of my parents are from Warszawa, Poland, and most of my family lives there still.
Spanish I learned through middle school, high school, and then college, and I still use it pretty frequently, which I'm grateful to be able to do. So, if you speak either of these languages, Polish or Spanish, please stop on by for a chat! I could use the practice!
