Class Experience

Creative writing isn’t something that is limited to short stories or poems; creative writing takes on many different forms, each of which allows for personal expression, imagination, and creativity. In this class we will be learning about and trying out many different forms of creative writing. Each class session will allow learners to explore different writing styles and express creativity though words. Some topics and types we will do include: comics, blogging, songs, poetry, journaling, and more.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in English from American Military University
Hello! I have been teaching and tutoring children from ages 2-24 for over 11 years now, at least four of which have been primarily with both the special needs and the autistic population. I have taught a large amount of subjects and materials locally and online, in small group settings, large classroom settings, at a charter school, at traditional schools, and at multiple Montessori schools as well. 

I have a BA in Literature and Creative Writing from American Military University, where I graduated with honors in the top 1% of my class in May 2010. I also have training in ABA as well. 

I am highly energetic and positive, and I make it my aim to always teach with kindness, courtesy, and respect, modeling the behaviors I hope to see and receive back from my students. I teach to each individual student on their own personal level and make learning fun by being adaptable, personal, and positive at all times.

I teach various types of art, creative writing, mathematics, cooking classes, life skills, study skills, fitness classes, rebounding (mini trampoline) classes, book club, study/test prep, healthy habits, the history of essential oils, practical life, one-on-one or small group tutoring, and more. I am also open to any suggestions or requests that anyone has as well. 

I LOVE cats and I have three that you will hear me talk about and that also try to get involved in my classes sometimes, too! My family and I also enjoy hiking, swimming, riding bikes, camping, and fishing.
