I taught 8th grade English for 6 years, and last school year, I entered the high school halls with Freshman English. This year I am teaching junior English and Honors Sophomore English. Clearly, as an English teacher, I absolutely love reading, writing, and learning. Now, I decided to let this fun survey tell you the rest. I just got married this summer, so this is my first year teaching as Mrs. Chambers.
