Class overview
AP English Literature and Composition is an introductory college-level literary analysis course. Students cultivate their understanding of literature (fiction, poetry, drama) through reading and analyzing texts as they explore concepts like character, setting, structure, perspective, figurative language, and literary analysis in the context of literary works (www.apcentral.collegeboard.org).
About me
El Paso native and a first-generation graduate from The University of Texas at El Paso. I have two boys, Elio (7), Lucas (5), married to Eddie, also a UTEP Graduate.
Educational Background: B.A. in Creative Writing with a Minor in Theatre Arts (2005) from The University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP). Master of Arts in English and American Literature (2012) from UTEP. Attending UTEP for me was about being able to stay home and receiving a quality education. I loved being at UTEP, I made friendships that will last a lifetime, and I was able to work on campus while finishing both of my degrees.
