Welcome to English!
My name is Dr. Katrina Dobbs and I am an English teacher at Richwood High School. Currently, I teach English II (10th) and English III Gifted. I have extensive knowledge in curriculum and instruction and educational leadership. As a former Curriculum Coordinator for English & Social Studies, my goals is to help change the trajectory of classroom demographics as it pertains to low performance testing and cognitive results in Louisiana.
I believe in the instruction of the whole child which means if I can change your mind and help you believe in YOU, you can and will accomplish anything you desire. To get there I have a rigorous, yet do-able pacing guide combined with many researched-based learning strategies in the process.
English II is not easy but it is only hard if you believe it is. Rigor, Relevance, and Relationships wins in and out of the classroom.
Please join my virtual & hybrid (virtual and in-person) classrooms for engaging discussions, content-specific topics, and discussions that aim to broaden and deepend our understanding!
Sincerely,
Dr. Dobbs
