Personal Bio
I enjoy teaching and supporting others, as I was supported and taught by excellent and compassionate teachers, my family included. Each and every day, I learn and grow by listening, speaking, reading, and writing in English, my second language, and in Vietnamese, my first. I love to travel so that I can be more humble. My ultimate goal is to leave longlasting impressions through the art of teaching and my lifelong passion of supporting and enabling others to fulfill their potentials.
I enjoy Vietnamese American Literature.
Viet Thanh Nguyen's work has inspired me, and I am currently teaching his Pulitzer Prize - winning novel, The Sympathizer, in my English 1A class.
I embrace postmethod and cultural realism Pedagogy/Andragogy, a well-grounded concept I learned from my TESOL method class, taught by Dr. B. Kumaravadivelu. At its heart lies the tenets of choosing to be successful.
