ASeitz

Hello. My name is Ali. I grew up in Miami, FL (quite proudly). I am just now, after four years of college, acquiring the know-how and tools for winter survival (at least, enough to tell my recently-arrived-from-the-tropics students that I know both where they've been and where they're going, climate-wise).

I teach 7th grade English Language Arts in a bilingual classroom and 7th grade Novel Studies in a monolingual classroom. I began teaching in early October, and I just had my first good few days (waiting on a week...).

Beloved was the book that made me want to major in Literature or English. I love Latin American fiction, and lately, I've been loving graphic novels. The last excellent and disturbing book I read was Disgrace by J.M. Coetzee.
