Greetings!

My name is Tamera L. Jenkins-Wade and I teach Early College English IV and Senior English IV. It takes a very special person to be an effective teacher. Teaching is not just a profession, but it should be a passion. Knowing that you have the power to mold a young mind into something wonderful, regardless of their background; is very fulfilling. I am from a small town called Marshall, Texas and I am the second oldest of seven children. I have lived in Cedar Hill for 19 years.  I have been teaching for 17 years and 11 of those years were here at Cedar Hill High School.  I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, shopping and laughing.  Last but certainly not least, I am a proud Christian and God is the center and foundation of my being.

I attended and received my Bachelor Degree at Wiley College "Home of the Great Debaters"  and my Masters of Education(2010) and Masters of Counseling(2015) at Liberty University. I am a teacher, mother, wife and a daughter and I do not take either role lightly.  I take pride and great pleasure in giving 100% in every capacity of my life!
