One of the most important parts of writing a great story is creating strong characters, but what exactly does this mean? In this class, your learner will discover exactly how to create a character their readers will love. We'll talk about the different aspects of character creation, what the qualities of a strong character are, and how a character can impact a story in a unique and effective way. This class is perfect for 9-13 year olds who have some writing experience or who are interested in writing a story.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Communication isn't always easy, but in my classes, students learn that it can be fun! I offer writing, communication, and social classes based on topics kids love. Learning doesn't have to be boring, so I offer Roblox, Minecraft, Fortnite, and even Harry Potter classes designed to get your learners thinking about different ways to share their thoughts and express themselves. I offer writing, science, and social classes designed to help your learner share their thoughts in a safe environment.
I hope that after class, each student will walk away from our time together feeling more confident and comfortable with their own communication skills. My goal as an educator is to help students feel great about their writing and communication skills and to learn how to improve in new and creative ways.
I'm a professional writer with 19 years of experience as an article creator, novelist, and editor. I've published several bestselling books and love both creative and technical writing. I also teach writing at homeschool co-ops and online for teens and adults.
I hold a M.A. in English.
