My Students

I teach a group of students who are truly curious about the world around them.

They are always asking questions, seeking the "Why" and the "How".

They seek to find and create meaning out of the ordinary, and the complex.

My Project

For most students the works of William Shakespeare seem like a daunting task. The text is seen as too complex, and the language as too confusing. With your help, students will be able to dive deep into his classic work, Romeo and Juliet.

The No Fear Shakespeare version of the play gives students a modern translation along with the original writing, helping students understand this great work.

Students will walk away with a deeper understanding, students will be able to have more in depth conversations about the themes displayed in the work.
