Welcome to my home page! I'm professor Kevin Ferns and I teach English composition, English literature, and creative writing classes at Woodland Community College, both online and face-to-face. I started teaching at WCC in 2005 after a brief career in book publishing and proposal writing and marketing. I'm also the Vice-President (WCC) of our faculty association and chief negotiator on the FAYCCD negotiations team. I'm proud to serve as the faculty advisor for our campus literary arts magazine, Ink, A Literary Arts Magazine.
When I'm not in the classroom with my students, I like to spend time with my partner, four kids, and labradoodle camping at the beach or in the mountains, kayaking, hiking, golfing, or exploring new places. I'm also a soccer coach, avid runner, and overly optimistic lifetime fanatic of the Sacramento Kings.
I'm dedicated to helping you achieve your reading, writing, and critical thinking goals and advance to the next stage in your academic career, and I believe that a world class institution like WCC is the perfect springboard for your ultimate success at a four year college, in your career, and in your future life.
I offer office hours as needed via Zoom and on Tuesdays/Thursdays from 12:00-1:00 in my office, room 853C.
