Hi there, my name is Karen Willow and I am the creator of Enchanted Worlds Academy. 

At Enchanted Worlds Academy, magic is brought to life through book discussion, virtual travel, and gaming clubs. Children and young adults are invited to explore the depths of their imagination. In these small group classes, each individual is given respect and autonomy, as they discover that the key to an enchanted life is found within. Inspiring youth to retain their sense of wonder and curiosity all their lives, and making learning fun along the way, Enchanted Worlds Academy is your ticket to magical places.

I have been teaching English and other subjects in an online classroom setting since 2014. I hold a Bachelor's of Science degree in Human Development and Family Studies, a TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages)  teaching certificate, along with a minor in Gerontology and Horticulture. When I am not teaching online, I can be found in the classroom of my local elementary school as a substitute teacher.

In 2019, I was asked to speak at a conference of 700+ teachers to talk about how I use technology in the classroom to teach online learners. I also had the opportunity to speak with the Oxford University Press about ESL curriculum. As of 2023, I have taught over 10,000+ classes online.

My courses engage young learners in a wide array of topics. Through discussion groups, book clubs, travel adventures, games, and role-playing activities, joining in my online classroom is guaranteed to be a fun and engaging experience. My class topics come from real life experiences. Whether it be my life-long love for the Harry Potter series, backpacking Europe to discover the delights of books and films, or my own keen sense of adventure and play, I only offer courses on things that deeply inspire me. 

In my classroom, your enrollee will be engaged by my own excitement for learning. I use webcam software in my classroom that allows me to use videos, music, green-screening, animations, and more to make my classroom a captivating experience. Not to mention, my love for costumes and role-playing allow me to create an immersive experience in each class.

I think education should be made fun by allowing kids to learn about topics through their own interests. Learning in my classroom is an energetic experience that focuses on engaging each student to participate actively. Each child will have their own chance to express their opinions, thoughts, and ask questions. 

Alright, enough about me! Time to dive in and have some fun!
