Julieta Woo

Welcome! My name is Julieta Woo, and I'm thrilled to share what I have gleaned over the past twenty years designing, developing, and teaching with you. I love to tailor my teaching to different learning styles to spark dialectic discussions to engage critical thinking. I grew up in Portland, Oregon, skiing and hiking on Mount Hood. I received my BA in International Studies from Lewis and Clark College, minoring in East Asian Studies, and MA in Teaching Secondary Education from Lewis & Clark Graduate School. I began my teaching career at the Beaverton School District in Portland, Oregon.
This year, I will be teaching 9th and 11th Honors English and AP Language and Composition. My husband and I live in Simi Valley, and our son and daughter are attending universities in California. “Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord:
though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool. Isaiah 1:18 |
English ProgramTeacher(s): Carolyn Krause & Julieta Woo
The Hillcrest English department provides a comprehensive program in writing, literature, grammar, and vocabulary. Opportunities for both academic and creative writing provide students with the experience needed to find their personal voice and develop their skills in analysis, argumentation, and research. Our graduates are routinely recognized by their college professors as skilled writers with the ability to communicate far beyond the level of their peers. Literature studies include a focus on Shakespeare and the classics with particular emphasis on close reading, analysis, and biblical worldview. Grammar skills include the use of language conventions and the identification of parts of speech, parts of the sentence, verb tense and voice, phrases, and clauses. Vocabulary studies provide background on academic language commonly found on the SAT and ACT exams along with instruction on and practice with related skills. Our students graduate with confidence knowing they are fully prepared for the university of their choice. |
