2-4 horas por semana. There are exciting weekly writing assignments planned for each class! Completing these assignments is strongly encouraged, as it is a great opportunity to practice and develop your writing skills. I understand that every student is unique and has their own writing journey, so it's important that you feel comfortable working at your own pace. Homework time can vary based on the assignment and the individual, but I am confident your student will find the tasks engaging and worthwhile! Students should schedule 1 - 4 hours for each assignment for optimal success. Each week students turn in 3 things. 1. Keyword Outline (KWO) 2. IEW Checklist 3. Final Draft of their paper Please Note that students and/or parents need to know how to upload attachments (PDF or Pictures) and how to use the basic functions of Google Docs. All of these steps will be demonstrated in class for students.

Evaluación

I provide positive, constructive feedback throughout the course to encourage growth in writing skills. We use the IEW checklist for all assignments to help students understand expectations and improve structure and style. While I do not assign letter or percentage grades, I offer rubric scores for each final paper, which parents can easily convert to a grade. This provides a more comprehensive evaluation for those who need formal grading. Please note, final papers must be submitted on time to receive a rubric score. My goal is to support students in becoming confident, skilled writers.

Perfil

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente

Licenciatura desde University of Washington

I'm a dedicated educator with over 15 years of writing instruction experience. My passion is to make writing engaging and enjoyable for my students, and I strive to bring creativity and interactivity to every lesson.

As a parent of three children, I've had the opportunity to use the IEW program at home and have walked my own kids through the program. This personal experience has given me a unique perspective and deep understanding of the challenges that students and families may face in the writing process.

In my classes, I aim to create a supportive and dynamic learning environment that encourages students to take risks and develop their own unique voice as writers. I believe that with the right guidance and support, every student has the potential to become a skilled and confident writer.

Whether in the classroom or at home, I'm dedicated to making writing a positive and rewarding experience for all students, and I'm excited to share my knowledge and passion with you.
