Welcome!  I hope this class is both educational and enjoyable for you. My name is Dr. Becky NeSmith.  I have taught middle and high school English for 20 years, and I have taught at the college level for six years.  I have been married to the love of my life for more than 20 years, and we have five beautiful boys.  I earned my bachelor's degree in language arts from Jacksonville State University, my master's degree in instructional leadership from Jacksonville State University, my master’s degree in ESL from The University of Alabama at Birmingham, and my doctoral degree in ESL from Northcentral University.  I love learning, and I love helping others learn.  Let's have an amazing year!
