Jasmine is an English teacher from north Minneapolis with a background in education spanning about 6 years. I’ve worked in various roles in education from literacy-based after-school programs with the YMCA, to working as a paraprofessional in a charter school, to where I currently am now, which is a KS3 coordinator for English in a London school. I’ve written for a local newspaper and Fordham about teacher preparation programs, Project Forever Free on a piece titled “Literacy: The Forgotten Social Justice Issue”, More recently, I’ve written for citizen education and am an opinion writer with Education Week. I also have appeared on a few panels and podcasts about improving reading instruction.
