This blog has several purposes; however, the primary one is to give students a forum to express their responses to the IB works studied in the form of a Reader's Response Journal (RRJ). A secondary purpose, but nevertheless an important one, is to provide a forum to facilitate communication between the teacher, students, and parents. Parents, please feel free to post me a message, anytime!

Welcome, Students and Parents. Students, please feel free to leave me a message in addition to any required assignments you post. Parents, also feel free to write me about anything.
My first teaching assignment was in Riyadh, Saudia Arabia in 1977, teaching English as a foreign language. When I returned to the U.S., I began teaching French and English in Bladen County, North Carolina, where I taught for eighteen years at Bladenboro High School. In 1997 I moved back to the Gulf Coast, specifically to Louisiana, where I have been teaching at John Ehret High School for the last twelve years. I love teaching world literature, especially French literature. At present, I am teaching IB English A1 which is a two-year college-level course. I really love the challenge!
