What to do if you are an English teacher? - currently offline

Before I got into teaching, I naively assumed that teachers would be given all the materials they needed in order to teach the required core curriculum, and that what teachers created themselves was just gravy. Oh, how wrong I was! I was lost my first year, begging and borrowing anything and everything I could get my hands on to help students learn the skills on which they were being tested. I was hired at a school with an established reputation and high scores–I certainly did not want to mess that up as a first year teacher! After struggling with my first year of teaching, never able to find good materials I needed to help my students meet the demands of district and state testing requirements, I decided that I needed to design my own. I spent an entire summer, day after day, creating and writing materials that helped my students learn and appreciate the required core literature, the skills and concepts of the California Content Standards, the grammar, the writing, the vocabulary, quizzes, tests, essay prompts!! Finally, I had created my first Literature Guide.
After using my materials with HUGE success and sharing my success and enthusiasm with my colleagues who wanted to know my secret, I shared and created more for more of literature I had to teach. From there, after recommendations and nudges from my colleagues and family who felt I was on to something, I joined up with my mom (a former teacher herself) and opened an online store with four titles.
Now, with over 35 titles, six years later, blood, sweat, tears, and hours of lost sleep, here we are–Secondary Solutions–The First Solution for the Secondary Teacher!

Editorial Maipue, Argentina, Secundaria, Tecnología de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC)
Maipue es una editorial independiente que se inició en 1997 con la edición de libros de texto para la educación.
Su especialización en el nivel secundario le permitió la generación de textos de tratamiento riguroso en una amplia variedad de temáticas, preservando al mismo tiempo contenidos socialmente válidos y un lenguaje claro y accesible.
Los libros de texto para ESB-Enseñanza Media- Secundaria no sólo intentan satisfacer los objetivos planteados en los programas curriculares sino, también, a fin de interesar al alumno, plantean las distintas interpretaciones sobre los hechos estudiados, rescatan las controversias sociales y científicas más notables e incluyen referencias a la actualidad.
En el 2004 se inició la colección de interés general El hombre es tierra que anda, en la que se incluye ensayos sobre temas diversos, análisis político e historia.
Una mirada latinoamericana sobre el mundo y sus diversas realidades, con textos comprometidos con las problemáticas tratadas, le valieron una gran aceptación entre los lectores, docentes y bibliotecarios, quienes reconocen a la editorial como generadora de contenidos de alta calidad y consulta necesaria.

Throughout her thirteen year career, Ileana Jiménez has been a leader in the field of social justice education for students of color, LGBT youth, women and girls.
Currently, Jiménez teaches courses on feminism, Latina/o literature, LGBT literature, and memoir writing.
The hallmarks of her diversity programming initiatives for students include a yearlong series on the intersections of race, class, gender, ethnicity, religion, and sexuality in 2007-08 titled Gender and Sexuality: What’s Next in the Conversation? and her interview of Rachel Maddow in 2009. She frequently leads presentations on inclusive programming and curriculum at the annual NAIS People of Color Conference, the NYSAIS diversity conference, and independent schools in the Northeast.
In 2006, she founded the New York LGBT Independent School Educators Group, providing LGBT educators professional development and networking opportunities.
A passionate advocate for the education of girls and women, Jiménez is a frequent speaker at Smith College, where she currently chairs the planning committee for the 2010 A Legacy in the Making: A Conference for Alumnae of Color event to be held on campus.
Outside of teaching, Jiménez serves as the board secretary of the Astraea Lesbian Foundation for Justice, judges for the Lambda Literary Awards, and is a recent alumna of the Progressive Women’s Voices program at the Women’s Media Center in New York.
She received her MA in English Literature at Middlebury College’s Bread Loaf School of English and her BA in English Literature at Smith College.
Feminist Teacher
Feminist Teacher intends to expand the circle of discussion to educators in the k-12 sector who consider their teaching practices to be feminist in design and implementation. The goal of the blog is to make feminist teachers visible to each other and to the larger world of educators, as we move forward with our important work.
Feminist pedagogy is one in which issues of race, class, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, religion, age, ability, politics, and human rights—among others—inform a teacher’s philosophical vision that shapes not only content but also action, both that of the teacher as well as the students in the classroom and beyond.
The Feminist Teacher blog ultimately inspires action: the action of the mind and of the heart for greater gender, racial, and economic justice.
