Monday 6:10-7:10 Eastern time: Add dialogue around descriptions to create a complete story

Tuesday 4-5 PM Eastern time:  Add descriptions around dialogue

Wednesday at 1:30 PM Eastern time: Ten minutes of free writing and picture writing 

In this class, we will do various writing exercises that will help you become a better writer and strengthen your creativity. Every class will also allow you to write and share your work with others. 

The following writing exercises will be done in this class. The explanations of the exercises are further down.

Speed writing 
100-word stories
Write from pictures 
Continue the story 
15-word poetry 
Add dialogue around descriptive writing 
Add story around dialogue 
Ten-minute free writing

The students can join any class they like and do not have to do all of them. The exercise will alternate throughout the course. The same activities will return but with different concepts and content. 

Speed writing- Write a story, scene, or poetry in a short time using three given words (strengthens the capability to combine unrelated words into a story)

100-word stories- A genre and an action will be given that has to be included in the one hundred words. (Strengthens the skill to write impactful scenes and stories in fewer words and also to write things we might normally not do) 

Write from pictures- a picture or a collage will be shown, and the students will write whatever comes to their mind (helps creative thinking)

Continue the story- a short beginning of a story will be given, and the student will continue the story. The story doesn’t need to be finished during class time (a great way to write outside of your comfort zone and try different kinds of writing) 

15-word poetry-an object or theme will be given, for example, rain, ice cream, dogs, wind, etc., and the students write a miniature poem consisting of 15 words (helps you with careful word choices and the ability to express something or describe something in few words)

Add dialogue around descriptions- the students will be given a story with descriptive writing and add fitting dialogue(helps develop dialogue and using descriptions in your writing)

Add story around dialogue - The students will be given a short dialogue and then add descriptions around the dialogue  (helps to create scenes that bring the reader into the story)

Ten-minute free writing- we will write freely for ten minutes about anything that comes to mind. A whiteboard with suggestions will be given to the student who has a hard time thinking of something (a great way to unblock creativity and let the words flow)

教師檔案
教師專業知識和證書
My teaching philosophy is deeply rooted in personal experience. Growing up with dysgraphia, I encountered teachers who left me feeling uncomfortable, insecure, and inadequate. Those experiences shaped my commitment to creating an environment where every student feels welcome, confident, and supported. My goal is to build students up, ensuring they leave my classes with both knowledge and self-assurance.

As a teacher, I bring a wide array of subjects to life in my classes, ranging from creative writing and Swedish (my native language) to world religions, the Holocaust, and novel studies with a focus on folklore. Each subject reflects my passions and areas of expertise, offering students a rich and dynamic learning experience.

With a master’s degree in education and a double major in social and political science and world religions, my professional background equips me to guide students through diverse and complex topics. Having taught across various age groups in Sweden and now the USA, I also incorporate the principles of student democracy, encouraging students to take an active role in shaping their own learning journey.


On a personal note, I’ve always had a vivid imagination—perhaps a result of my Nordic upbringing. As a child in Sweden, I was fascinated yet terrified by the stories of fairies that pervade our folklore. Now, as an immigrant in the USA, I weave that sense of wonder into my own creative works, which have earned me awards for poetry and short stories.
