About Me

My name is Sarah Queen. I am from Clarksburg, WV and I am a Secondary English Education major. I would like to teach high school level English, especially at the 11th and 12th grade levels. I think that students learn best in an interactive and hands on environment. No student wants to be lectured for an hour on something they do not yet comprehend, but if you involve them in their own learning they are much more likely to be interested and understand what you're trying to teach them. Instead of lecturing students on different types of poetry, I'd have them write their own and then do research to discover what type of poetry they wrote, whether it be Haiku or Sestina.
