Novels are usually made up of 25 chapters and at least 40,000 words long. In this class learners will follow guides given by the teacher to plot out their own novel, receive different writing tips each class to help with their writing, and a prompt to guide their story for that week's chapters using a video link posted by the teacher in the classroom. Each chapter should be at least 1,600 words long. Learners will then write their own chapter(s) both in class (as time allows) and in between class meetings. They submit it for feedback in the classroom by either posting the text in the classroom or posting a link. Learners should take the feedback and use it to improve their stories.

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.
