Introduction

Hello, my name is Sabina Pringle. I like to go by Ms. Pringle. My academic background is English Literature and English as a Second Language. I’ve been teaching at City College for nearly two years. Before that I taught ESL at Universidad del Atlantico in Barranquilla, Colombia (not Columbia) for two years, and before that, I taught ESL in Spain. I was born in Spain. I really enjoyed teaching Writing for Engineering last spring, and I look forward to a great class this semester.
