This will be the sixth semester class for high school students that I run on Outschool. Below are links to the other semester classes. I have been teaching here for multiple years and have taught thousands of students in public schools, private tutoring, and Outschool classes. Shakespeare has a special place in my heart when working with students and research is an excellent way to learn how to write and develop paragraphs. Please feel free to check out these classes to gain a better understanding and feeling of my expertise.

Students will be asked to complete all of their reading outside of class. If some of our writing work is unfinished after class, students will be asked to complete that work outside of class as well. But the majority of work will be completed in class!
授業以外に週あたり 1 - 2 時間の学習が期待されます
評価が提供されます
Students will be given several formal writing assignments throughout the semester. While these are not tests, per se, they can be used as assessment pieces for homeschooling evidence, which many states and countries require. All formal writing in my class will be completed with multiple rounds of written and verbal feedback. Students will have the opportunity to work through their writing skills as a group and 1-1 with me in class!
成績が提供されます
Grading - Students will have the opportunity to receive a grade in the form of their choosing.I am happy to provide a grade in the form of a percentage, letter, or both. I can also offer a formal letter for submission to state programs. I ask students throughout the semester about their needs for grading and am happy to work with parents to create a plan that meets their needs! Please note that Grading is NOT required.
