Dr. Jennifer Kehoe's Webpage

My name is Dr. Jennifer Kehoe, Ph.D., and I have the joy of teaching your scholars at four different course levels: Sophomore, Junior, and College Composition, as well as College Introduction to Literature. I am honored to teach English at Rochester Early College International, which is a second home for me.

I have taught at Wilson Magnet High School, Vanguard, Leadership Academy, Franklin, and prior to that, I was a Professor at several local colleges - including Roberts Wesleyan, St. John Fisher College, SUNY at Brockport, Daemen College, and SUNY at Buffalo. My Ph.D. is in women's Black Literature of the 19th century and my Master's is in Poetics. 

I am pleased to bring my expertise in literature and writing to our scholars at Early College. All of my classes have been writing essays, taking Cornell notes, annotating text, and discussing higher-level critical thinking. I am very proud of my scholars and the academicians they have become. Our scholars take reading, writing, speaking, and listening very seriously in class. I am also teaching English 101 and 105, both college courses.

Scholars can correct and resubmit their work within two weeks for a higher score. This allows students to master what they have learned and to apply their knowledge to making their work stellar.

The following assignments are worth these percentages:

Summative, major paper or test- 45%

Formative, building blocks for summative - 35%

Classwork and participation - 20%

Homework and participation - 10%

I am blessed to have such wonderful students and families who support their scholars' learning and growing into the young responsible adults we know they can be! 

Yours truly,

Dr. Kehoe
