I hold two masters degrees in education: one from Relay Graduate School of Education in New York and another from the Charles Sposato Graduate School of Education in Boston. I have taught at the middle school, high school, and collegiate levels.
At Berkeley, I have taught courses entitled “Jewish and Black-ish: ‘Race Relations’ in American Literature” and “Audio Texts: Reading and/as Listening since 1930,” in addition to TA-ing courses on early American literature, contemporary literature, and modern poetry.
I have also taught creative writing at McKinley High School Juvenile Detention center in Martinez, CA, as part of the New Literary Project.
For three years, I ran the public humanities initiative “Read-Along with Berkeley English,” a Facebook group of 500+ members that connects Berkeley English courses to the global public. I moderated monthly “office hours” with members and Berkeley professors.
Throughout the 2023-2024 school year, I’ll be hosting a virtual bookclub entitled “Contemporary Jewish American Fiction” through Book Passage Marin.
I currently maintain a private tutoring practice, in which I work with students at the high school, collegiate, and graduate levels. You can sign up for a 30-minute free consult here.
