About Adam

Welcome! My name is Adam, and I'm an English teacher and current Department Head at Jesuit Dallas College Prep. I have 12 years of teaching experience in the English classroom. I'm TX state certified in English for grades 7-12; however, I've taught as young as 6th grade (during my student teaching years). My skills: grammar, expository writing (literary analysis papers), PSAT/SAT/ACT prep, curricular design. Interestingly, my two years of student-teaching were on a Native American Reservation in northeast NE (grades 6-8); however, I've spent 10 years teaching in elite, all-boys college prep schools in TX. Specifically, I've taught at Strake Jesuit College Preparatory (Houston, TX), Cistercian College Preparatory (Irving, TX), and Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas (Dallas, TX). These prep schools regularly rank as some of the best prep schools in America. I married a Texas girl, and have 3 young boys at home (7, 5, and 5 months).
