This is my 16th year teaching at the Bridge, and my 20th year working for Nuview Union School District. It is my job to not only teach the California Common Core Standards for English Grade 9, but to prepare the freshmen for the rigors of college and the adult world.
My teaching philosophy is embedded in my classroom rules:
Students Teacher
Be present Be present
Respect everyone and everything Respect everyone and everything
Be prepared to learn Be prepared to teach
Give 100% effort Give 100% effort
I have a reputation for setting high standards for my students and for myself, so providing a structured and safe learning environment is a priority. Students tell me I am strict but fair, and many of them report the assignments are challenging but fun. I use a variety of teaching strategies in the classroom to address different learning styles, and apparently my pedagogy is effective because I can proudly state my students deliver a high quality of work, and as a whole they score exceptionally well on state exams and other formal assessments.
Anyone who wants to contact me may do so by calling the school at (951) 928-0498 or via email at shansen@nuview.k12.ca.us.
