This multi-day class teaches leaners how to write a comparison-contrast expository essay. Each class session is dedicated to a stage in the writing process so by the end of the 4-day course, learners have written, edited, and revised a final draft of a comparison-contrast essay. Time in class designated to writing will be in the form of a workshop with learners working both independently and in collaboration with fellow learners and the teacher as needed. Learners who would like to are invited to share their writing with classmates. The following are the weekly sessions: Week 1, Day 1: Introduction to Comparison-Contrast & Prewriting Week 1, Day 2: Thesis Creation & Outlining Week 2, Day 1: Drafting Week 2, Day 2: Editing & Revising *Please feel free to contact me if the cost of this class (or any of my classes) is a prohibitive factor to enrolling.

Welcome to my classroom!
For 30 years I've helped students appreciate literature, develop their rhetorical and creative writing skills, and better organize and complete tasks. A central goal of my teaching & coaching is empowering students with strategies they can make use of on their own, and in each class I encourage students to participate fully in our sessions together by contributing to class discussions and asking questions.
I have a Bachelor's Degree in English Education, a Master's Degree in Literature, and a Doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction. My current class offerings include literature studies, book clubs, creative writing and formal essay writing classes, and Executive Function coaching.
When I'm not teaching, I love spending time with my family and traveling! :)Reviews
