An integral part of storytelling is bringing your characters to life. We want the reader to connect with our characters, but how do we give them dimension or make them memorable long after the book is returned to the shelf? In this class, students will learn and talk about their function in a story, methods for constructing rich, layered characters, and ways to ensure their impact on the reader. Students will be asked to reflect on some of their own favorite characters, using them as models in our discussion and thinking about why they are inspired by them. Ultimately, this class is meant to encourage students to see their characters as the bridge that connects the reader to the story. I will begin the class with a lecture supported by slides. Discussion and feedback are encouraged with respect for the opinions and ideas of others. Students will be given an exercise to demonstrate what they have learned about character description which will be shared in class. We will conclude by summarizing what we have learned and recognizing our fellow writers. As this is an inclusive class, all students are welcome. If your student has special abilities or requires accommodations, please let me know.

碩士 由 University of South Carolina
I have extensive experience working with children, adolescents, and young adults within the educational and mental health systems. While in graduate school, I was a part-time college instructor which ignited my passion for teaching. I then became a mental health therapist, working in residential facilities as well as in the community. For the past six years, I have taught students online, which has been rewarding and challenging in ways that continue to inspire me.
Along with being a teacher, I am also a writer. I have had two short stories published, and I continue to regularly submit material. For three years, I had a blog that included my short stories, reviews, and opinions on various issues. Other examples of my writing experience consist of curriculums for an independent living program, program descriptions, numerous website articles, as well as online advertisements. I enjoy sharing my passion for writing with students and hearing about what inspires them. I strive to provide a supportive atmosphere for my students, allowing them to harness and express their creativity in ways unique to them.
Throughout my educational and professional careers, I have implemented various tools in my own life to create and maintain a system of learning, organization, and balance. After successes and failures alike, I now believe the knowledge of "how to learn" is a skill that serves us well after we graduate from school. I enjoy sharing these valuable skills with students who may discover a new way to be productive, feel confident as they plan for their future, and apply them to different parts of their lives for the rest of their lives.
