Loading ...Am I the only professional who doesn’t have a vita? Why do they call it a vita anyway? What happened to the resume? I think I have one of those. If I were to apply for a new teaching job, would I even need to submit a vita? I’ve been working in the same place for way too long.
Vita coming soon.
Summary
I have been teaching for 17 years. I taught 2 years at Deer Valley HS, 2 years at Westwood HS, and 4 years at Central Arizona College before coming to South. Before starting my teaching career, I studied communications at Phoenix College. I later changed my major and my location and earned my B.A. degree in English Literature from California State University, Bakersfield in 1989, and a M.Ed. degree in English Secondary Education from Northern Arizona University in 1993.
A few years ago in 2004-2005 I took a sabbatical to finish up my doctoral dissertation on the effects of hybrid courses on retention and student satisfaction. I finished my doctorate in Instructional Technology and Distance Education at Nova Southeastern University in 2006.
