As the newly published author of the "Emotebook" and a freelance writer for over 20 years, I have relied on language arts skills as the building blocks of a happy career. For three of those years, I also worked full-time as an associate editor, which helped me gain real-world expertise in the nuances of English language arts. I am walking the language arts journey with my three children while homeschooling them, as well as with several other students in various grades. I am also bridging the gap between cultures by teaching English as a second language to hundreds of students online. I look forward to this language arts quest with you!

Optional: I will pull most of our worksheets from a workbook that is available for purchase.
