Patrice Dean
My name is Patrice Dean. I have a Master's in Education and a Bachelor's in English. I am also a national board-certified teacher. For the past 15 years, I have taught English and social studies in a traditional classroom, in grades ranging from 3rd to 9th. I have also taught college freshmen at the community college level. I am currently teaching public speaking part-time at TTU K-12. Teaching, along with a love for reading and learning, has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. I love having those "aha!" moments when I can see concepts suddenly come alive to my students. I look forward to building relationships with each of my amazing students in our class!
