Hi. My name is Katie O'Donnell Christoffersen, and I will be your instructor this year in English 101! I just got married this summer, so you probably haven't seen my new last name yet. Don't worry. You're in the right section. You can feel free to call me Katie, Mrs. C, or Mrs. Chris. I know that Christoffersen is quite a long one. ;o)
I'm a PhD student in Second Language Acquisition and Teaching, and I've been teaching in the Writing Program for 2 years now. I really enjoy helping students to express themselves clearly and authentically in their writing as well as challenging students to "think critically." We'll talk more about that in class.
Take a look at the visual collage I put together for you, which includes pictures of my new husband, my parents and brother, my puppy Shaya and some activities I enjoy. You'll get a chance to do the same for your first assignment due on Wed. Aug. 25 by 5pm. Read the instructions and feel free to work ahead.
