Taught exclusively by award-winning published authors! Students will learn about a specific creative writing skill each week, then receive a matching prompt. They’ll spend 20-25 minutes in class writing, and are then invited to share!

Class Experience

Follows Teacher-Created Curriculum
  • Students will create a new writing piece each week based on the teacher's lesson/prompt.
  • Students will learn a new creative writing concept each week, deep-diving into specific and often unexplored topics.
  • Students will write in a low-stakes but challenging environment, designed to get them thinking and creating but also to prevent burnout or frustration.
Mastery Evaluation
Frequency: 1-2 throughout the class
Feedback: included
Details: At the end of each class, students are invited--though not required-- to share their writing with the group. The teacher will provide quick, thoughtful feedback and discuss work with the student! Students who prefer to send their work to the teacher will receive written feedback within a few days of class.
Grading
Frequency: included
Details: Grades, write-ups, and assessments can be given upon request.
Below are my general classroom rules and policies. These will also be explained to students when we begin class!

-For everyone's safety, and to ensure an engaging and social experience, students are required to have working microphones and video for the entirety of this class, positioned such that we can both hear and see them. Please be sure to prepare your student for this requirement before class begins!
-Students are asked not to use filters or virtual backgrounds-- though if there is an important reason to use a virtual background, please just let me know ahead of time that your student will be using one (no questions asked!).
-Students will be asked to introduce themselves by sharing their name, pronoun, and a favorite book.

This class also requires in-class writing. Your learner will be most successful if they have a quiet space free from distraction to complete this writing.
