Tyler Anderson - English
The 2022-2023 school year will be Mr. Anderson's seventh year at The Rock. Prior to joining Rock Ridge in 2016, Mr. Anderson enjoyed six years at Freedom High School in South Riding, VA. For the 2022-2023 school year, Mr. Anderson will teach Dual Enrollment English and English 10H. In addition to teaching English, Mr. Anderson supports students transitioning from the academic track to the honors track by acting as one of the co-directors of Rock Ridge's H.E.A.T. program.
Mr. Anderson graduated from Shippensburg University with a BA in English in 2010. In the spring of 2017, Mr. Anderson completed his MA in Professional Writing and Rhetoric at George Mason University with a concentration in composition studies.
Of course, Mr. Anderson strives to equip his students with the reading, writing, and research skills they'll need to succeed in college, but he also aspires to cultivate a love for learning, reading, and writing that extends beyond the classroom. On a daily basis, Mr. Anderson aims to lead by example, reading, writing, and revising alongside his students. His classroom, 1603, is a place designed for students to draft, revise, communicate, think, and create.
Personal: Aside from teaching, Mr. Anderson is an avid reader, writer, and adult-league hockey player. When he isn't grading papers or creating lessons, he is most likely outdoors jogging, hiking, biking, or frequenting Purcellville playgrounds with his wife and two daughters. Mr. Anderson is also excited about welcoming his third child in November of 2022.
