• I am a licensed California substitute teacher. I work in any role K-12, but I have specialized in long-term roles where I have written assignments and shaped curriculum.

Long-term roles.

• 9th grade Ethnic Studies, 1 semester, East College Prep: I developed a curriculum and created over 30 assignments and projects.
• 11th grade Environmental science, 1 quarter, PUC Early College Learning Academy: I wrote tests, followed text books and facilitated labs.
• 10th Grade Chemistry, 1 quarter, East College Prep: I oversaw a long term science project.

• Alongside my teaching and creative endeavors, I have worked in ad agencies as a copywriter. I write radio commercials, billboards, magazine, and newspaper advertisements. In this field, I've learned how to use creative tools, like Photoshop and video editors. I like to incorporate these tools into class projects. Check out my portfolio at evandugganwords.com.

• I taught a literacy workshop at several Chicago public schools. We would visit each class once or twice per week, and at the end of each semester, the students performed a play. The course successfully increased student reading scores.

• With my video production company, Oak Cask Media, I helped Jefferson County Public Schools maintain their internal communications during the confusing times of the pandemic. I helped craft scripts for the Diversity and Inclusion team and produced and edited videos that the district used in training its 6,000+ educators.

• I created and led workshops for middle school students designed to teach reading Shakespeare through acting. I teach that the first step in performing Shakespeare is to understand his words and to have fun with them.
• -West Middle School -Sky Vista Middle School -George Washington High School (Denver)

• I crafted a science demonstration for students in elementary and middle schools in Denver. We would bring in liquid nitrogen as a visual aid to discuss the states of matter. This show was designed and performed for K-7.

• I have written and produced several plays and comedy shows.
