Teaching and Course Development
General Description:
From Autumn 2007 to the present I teach one section of each of the two listed courses during the Autumn, Winter, and Spring quarters at Ohio State. I develop and prepare my own syllabi and course materials and hold the position of instructor of record, under the external supervision of my advisers. The students who enroll in each course are, typically, undergraduate pre-service teachers, although I also have had several students from the arts and sciences take the course as an elective.
I use a weblog (entitled, HISTPHILED) for both courses in order to host out-of-class discussions in a public forum. Feel free to visit, or even to join in, if you please.

General Description:
During the 2005 - 2006 academic year, I worked as a Spanish teacher at a small Catholic school where I taught 18 sections of K - 8 Spanish (2 per grade level) to approximately 415 students. While I was primarily hired to teach Spanish language (grammar and syntax), I also inserted a separate cultural component for 7th and 8th grades.
K – 8 Spanish Language, Transfiguration Catholic School
7 – 8 grade Latin American World and Society, Transfiguration Catholic School
