Book It! Learning Resource Center, L.L.C.

Hello! My name is Sandra Sanders, and education is an essential part of who I am. I wanted to be a teacher for as long as I can remember, and I have been lucky enough to be an educator for over thirty years. I have taught a diverse number of classes (AP Language and Composition, AP Literature and Composition, college prep, inclusion, language literacy, written expression, executive function, SAT prep), while working with a wide age and range of learners (students with dyslexia and other related language-based learning differences, ADHD, Special Education, ESOL, honors, and gifted).

After earning a Bachelor’s Degree in English and a secondary teacher certification from Stony Brook University, I began my career as a high school classroom teacher in a New York public school. Upon earning my Master’s Degree in Children’s and Adolescent Literature, I relocated to Maryland, where I have served as a public high school and independent school English teacher, English Department Chairperson, and Learning Specialist. A former Charles County Teacher of the Year and National Board Certified teacher, I hold a current English 7-12 Advanced Professional Certification in Maryland. I earned a Ph.D. in Instructional Leadership at Notre Dame of Maryland University, and I possess a graduate certificate in Dyslexia and Language-Based Learning Disabilities from Southern New Hampshire University. I maintain a strong passion for education and lifelong learning. When I am not teaching, I love to read and write, to run, and to spend time with my family.
