Personal:

I have been a professor at Texas Wesleyan University for 14 years and I love it here! We are all just like family, working closely with our colleagues and students to ensure that we produce the best possible teachers. I teach a variety of reading education courses, including RDG 4310, RDG 3322, RDG 4547, RDG 6319, RDG 6324, and RDG 6346. I also enjoy supervising student teachers and interns.

My weekend duties typically include that of soccer mom! I have four beautiful daughters. Kayela, Lacey, and Halee are my 13 year old triplets and Madison is the newest addition to our family. She is 4 years old. I have a wonderful husband, Joe, who is an administrator at Weatherford High School. Joe also teaches education courses at Wesleyan during the summers. He and I enjoy going to movies and sporting events, out to eat, and playing with our daughters! He even has me watching ESPN with him. In my free time I enjoy traveling, reading, and spending time with my friends.

Dr. Dryden has been a member of the Texas Wesleyan faculty since 1992.
