Essay writing is one of the most important skills a person can learn. But, it isn't always interesting or fun. In this class learners will advance their essay writing skills and be able to choose from a variety of topics and facts to use in their essay, as well as various writing tips to help them with their writing. Each week they will write part of or an entire essay which they should turn in to the teacher before the next week's class for feedback and grading. The required length for the essay will increase as the class goes on, and the longest required length will be 14 to 15 double spaced pages.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
I am a former Home School student who has never stopped learning! I love history and telling stories verbally and through writing, and I want to share that passion with others. I believe the statement is true: “Those who don’t learn from History are doomed to repeat it.” We need to learn from the past to shape our own futures and the world in general. I believe the best way to learn about history is to learn about the people who lived through it and what they experienced and tell their stories. I love telling stories through writing and enjoy public speaking, so storytelling is a natural combination of the two.
I have 4 years of teaching experience in a variety of places from teaching/coaching drama and dance for homeschoolers in a group setting, to homeschooling two young children for a few months, to teaching English as Second Language (ESL) to college students, to teaching Arts and Crafts at a Summer Camp. I am currently a ESL teacher online with VIPKid. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Business Communication from Stevenson University.
I love to travel both in the US and internationally. I’ve spent time in almost every state on the East Coast and driven through the rest. I’ve visited seven different countries and lived in Asia for 17 months.
