About me:

My name is Ewa Barnes. I am originally from Poland. I arrived in the US when I was 20 years old, in search of the American Dream. I started my education at Norwalk Community College, then transfered to SUNY Purchase. I also hold an MA in Literature and a MS in Education, both from CCNY, the City College of New York. I have been teaching for nearly 20 years: ESL to international students in private language schools in NYC, in public high schools in NYC, in CCNY, and, my most beloved one, teaching you at BMCC. Here, I teach Critical Thinking, Literacy and Composition/ Writing courses. In my free time, I love to read, write, and explore the world with my two spirited children, and with my partner. I look forward to getting to know you.
