Welcome!
     
I am a tenth-grade English  teacher currently employed at Rio RIco High School  in Rio Rico, Arizona.� Rio Rico is a small community in the Sonoran Desert.  The town is approximately 15 miles from the border of Old Mexico.  This close proximity to the border equates into a daily use of Structured English Immersion, techniques developed in recognition  of  and to assist students with a home language other that English.

    I enjoy unraveling the perceived mysteries regarding the structure and history of the English language.
