Mr. Alex Tooke
English 1 Teacher
In 2018 and 2019 I student-taught in Wylie and subbed for a full year after I graduated from Texas A&M University - Commerce. The following two years I went back and worked in Commerce, TX for an Outdoor Education program while earning my Masters. I started teaching 9th grade English here last year and this year I'll be doing the same. My wife and I live in Josephine with our dog, Bonnie, and my wife is teaching English at Wylie East as well.
I love running, cycling, swimming, and rock climbing, but I find myself running less and cycling more as my knees start to complain more with each passing birthday. I love reading good books, writing simple poetry, playing video games on my computer/Xbox, and watching shows and movies with my wife. My favorite book is East of Eden by John Steinbeck and my favorite movie is a hard, three-way tie between A Knight's Tale, The Iron Giant, and Little Women (2019).
