Philosophy

As and English teacher I am passionate that English is not limited to the study of literature and poetry; rather it is an opportunity for all students to strengthen their communication skills. In order to enter the larger community as leaders, students must have critical thinking skills and the ability to defend, argue and promote their beliefs and points of view. In our classroom we work on this by critically analyzing readings that provide general knowledge of history and current events, by expressing thoughts and experiences in written forma, and through many opportunities to become eloquent and confident public speakers.

Imam Ali (a): One who appoints himself as a leader for others ought to begin with teaching himself before teaching others. And let him train others with his own behavior before training them with his tongue. One who teaches and trains himself is more deserving of honor that one who teaches and trains others.
