Doreen Ladinski joins Jackson Education after teaching AP Literature and Honors English at Governor Livingston High School for nearly two decades. Doreen has also taught writing and literature classes for many years at Montclair State University, where she received her MA in English. Her passion for literature eventually led her to Fordham University, where she completed advanced coursework in British literature. Doreen has a reputation for developing a deep appreciation for literature in her students and for challenging them to become strong writers and close readers. With these skills in place, Doreen's AP students have consistently achieved high scores on the AP Literature exam every year. In addition to teaching core English classes, Doreen has also taught a variety of electives, including journalism and creative writing. Doreen most enjoys the individual approach to tutoring, where she can take the time to help students read, write, and think critically, believing that higher order thinking skills are best developed through one on one instruction.
