You'll learn how to write quickly and beautifully, quickly, and clearly by learning and practicing your cursive penmanship! In our first class, we'll discuss the basics and talk about common barriers, so be ready to let me know what you'd like to be able to do best! After that, you'll learn your name, and a few useful tricks to help you develop your own unique writing style. At the end of the first class, I may give you an optional homework assignment that you can present at the beginning of our second and final class. In our second class, I'll take a look at your homework, or any writing practice you completed since our first meeting. Then, we'll practice and refine your style. Is a particular upper case letter difficult for you? Maybe there's another style of writing that you can make work for you with that letter for your note-taking For ultra-fast notes, many people half-write, half print! No matter what your goal is, we can find a way to make cursive make your life easier, make your writing beautiful, and give you a sense of pride in what you're able to do.

I've taught my own original curriculum at a high-end private training school for six years, and now I'm working independently to offer my courses online! I have an Honors Bachelor of Arts in English Literature and am TESOL Certified.
I value students learning by having fun and connecting to stories both academically and through life experience. I'm also a lover of debates! I believe in encouraging students to hone their existing strengths and interests to thrive in an academic environment.
I've taught everything from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to 1984, but my ultimate favorite to teach is anything Harry Potter! Critical thinking is also another one of my favorite things to teach.
