Work
I have many years international work experience. I am currently an instructor at a U.S. community college. I teach remedial literature and reading, writing, social sciences, and special topics. My pedagogy is that of critical literacy in the vein of Paulo Freire. Ira Shor, one of Freire's co-authors, perfectly defines the pedagogy as facilititating
habits of thought, reading, writing, and speaking which go beneath surface meaning, first impressions, dominant myths, official pronouncements, traditional cliches, received wisdom, and mere opinions, to understand the deep meaning, root causes, social context, ideology, and personal consequences of any action, event, object, process, organization, experience, text, subject matter, policy, mass media, or discourse.[1]
