Jill Biden is more than just the wife of new Vice President Joe Biden. She’s Dr. Jill Biden. Dr. Biden is an English professor, and despite the fact that she’s married to such a high profile figure, she’s not going to stop teaching.
For the past 15 years, Dr. Biden has been an English and writing instructor at Delaware Technical and Community College. While her husband was campaigning for VP, she continued to teach — and graded papers while she was on the road with him.
Upon moving to Washington, she was courted by a number of local schools for a teaching position. She’s made her choice — Northern Virginia Community College in Alexandria, VA, where Biden will be an adjunct instructor. This semester, Biden will be teaching two courses: an upper level ESL course and a developmental English course. Because of the anticipated demand for her classes, they are not open to all students; prospective students have to score well on a test to be admitted.
So what kind of a teacher is Jill Biden? Check out her reviews at RateMyProfessor.com.
