High School English Teacher Serving Various Needs

Omar M.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree and a Master of Education in English Education. I am a credentialed secondary English teacher and have completed advanced graduate coursework focused on instructional design, assessment, and action research. My professional preparation includes training in culturally responsive teaching, English Language Development (ELD), and data-driven instructional practices.

I have extensive experience teaching and tutoring English Language Arts using a student-centered, scaffolded approach. My methods emphasize close reading, academic writing, structured discussion, and explicit skill modeling. I frequently use formative assessment, targeted feedback, and revision cycles to support student growth. I also integrate multimodal texts, culturally relevant materials, and real-world connections to increase engagement and comprehension, particularly for multilingual learners.

I have been teaching for several years at the secondary level, working primarily with students in grades 9–10. My experience includes teaching general education English courses, American Literature, and advanced English Language Development classes for early-advanced English learners. I have taught in traditional classroom settings, small-group instructional contexts, and one-on-one tutoring environments. My background also includes supporting students from diverse linguistic, cultural, and academic backgrounds, with a focus on building confidence, academic language proficiency, and independent learning skills.
