Cassandra Teal
English & Social Studies
Hello! My name is Cassandra Teal, and I am thrilled to be spending my year teaching at McTavish. After moving from Nova scotia, I spent two years as a substitute in the division, and found myself gravitating more and more to McTavish because of its wonderful faculty and school culture. I am pleased to have finally joined the community as a teacher and to serve its students.
As far as interests go, I have many. I love reading anything I can get my hands on and creative writing in my spare time. I love working out and going for walks with my lovely husband. However, I am absolutely obsessed with both coffee and cats, and I will not apologize for either.
I hold a Master’s degree in English Literature and I graduated with my Bachelor of Education from Mount Saint Vincent University. As my specialities are in English and Social Studies, I am excited to be teaching Junior High Humanities this year. More than anything, I am passionate about helping students discover their love for reading and for exploring history. I look forward to another rewarding year with my students!
