Welcome to High School English
Teacher: Ms. Griffing
“For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.”
(2 Timothy 1:7)
Dear Students
First, the learning process does not require perfection; it requires effort. Some of your lessons in this class will probably be easy for you, and others might be challenging. When you come to a task that is challenging, don't be discouraged! If you put in an effort, you will learn, and making an attempt is always better than giving up.
Secondly, I as a teacher am on your side. I am here to encourage your and provide help when you need it. So, when you meet a challenge, know that I am doing my best to help you learn everything that you need to know to succeed.
I am very much looking forward to teaching you!
Blessings,
Ms. Griffing
About Your Teacher
This is my fifth year of teaching English for Enlightium Academy. I have taught all different levels of high school English and am excited to do so again this year. I truly believe that the language skills taught in English classes benefit students in all of their studies and continue to do so later in life.
My husband and I spend a lot of our time living in Tanzania. Our house is out in the country, and I live surrounded by baobab trees and other beautiful and interesting plants. However, right now we are in the United States and blessed to spend time with family.
In my free time I love to read and write. I don't have a favorite book because there are too many to choose from, but I love dystopian novels, poetry and creative nonfiction. In the future, I hope to spend more time traveling, and meeting people in new places.
