Renee White-Clark
(Associate Professor, School of Education)

A brief overview of your background, area of expertise, research and teaching.
I am an associate professor in the Literacy Department. This is my 9th year in higher education.I have previously taught in the NYC schools as a classroom teacher, and as a reading teacher in NYC and VA..

What do you feel strongly about in regards to teaching or your specialization?
I wish to continue my research and course integration regarding multiculturalism. It is an integral component of any teacher education program because we must prepare all educators to teach in our culturally pluralistic classrooms.

I came to Adelphi because of its excellent reputation in the field of education. I knew that the institution would support my professional and research aspirations. Adelphi has been very welcoming and supportive in my endeavors thus far. A collegial and collaborative climate is evident.
