During each 1:1 session, we will work together to develop writing goals, create an action plan, brainstorm ideas, and complete writing tasks through a combination of individual instruction, positive feedback, and collaborative writing.

Class experience

US Grade 7 - 12
Learners will be able to generate engaging and informative content, organize their thoughts and ideas in a clear and concise way, write in a more thoughtful and convincing way, and better understand the overall writing process.
I am a home educator with over 16 years of teaching experience with ages preschool to 12th grade. I have a proven track record of success in teaching writing to students of all ages and abilities, and I am passionate about helping learners develop their writing skills because I was a learner who found it difficult to understand the writing process. 

Specifically, I have taught multiple years of Middle School and High School English, including composition, literature, and grammar.  Currently, I teach an intermediate and an advanced high school level composition/literature course at our area homeschool cooperative.  

I believe that even the most reluctant writers can be unlocked with the right guidance and prompting. I have a college junior on the autism spectrum, a college sophomore with ADHD, and a gifted 10th grader.  Teaching to varying learners has given me the unique insight of how to teach children, at various levels, to express themselves.  

The following includes some specific examples of my teaching experience:
-I have successfully developed and implemented my own writing curriculum for middle and high school students.
-I have worked with students on a 1:1 basis, as well as in a classroom setting, to help them overcome specific writing challenges.
-I have mentored other home educators implement strategies to help struggling writers, as well as provided them with resources and support.
