課堂經歷
In this video-based class, students can expect to have fun while learning how to elevate their writing style through grammatical and stylistic devices. Each individual class will focus on a specific aspect of writing. Each assignment will include a checklist that builds over time, and all submitted assignments receive an evaluation with detailed feedback. All classes use a pre-recorded instructor video of 15-25 minutes. Students should pause the video to complete all activities. At the end, students will have a longer activity to complete and submit for feedback. In addition to the video, each week the instructor will post worksheets that review the class material, classwork and homework assignments. See the syllabus for a listing of the four lessons.

超過 4 週課 1:
Lesson 13
Lesson 13 continues where lesson 12 (in Part 3 of the series) left off. This week, students will add to their repertoire of sentence openers with a participial opening. They will also study the concept of hyperbole, which comes in handy with the writing assignment of creating an invective!
課 2:
Lesson 14
In lesson 13, students wrote an invective about something despise... this week, students will have to write an encomium (speech of praise) about the same exact thing! The new device this week is a simile. Students are now up to 14 requirements in their assignments.
課 3:
Lesson 15
While there aren't any new requirements this week, students will still get a lot of practice building stronger sentences and practicing their different openers. The focus of the assignment is to freeze a moment in time in writing, which requires students to rely on sensory details... all while using their vast checklist of grammatical and literary devices.
課 4:
Lesson 16
In this final lesson, we do not add any requirements... but we take something away! Specifically, students can no longer use the words get/got/gotten/has/had/have.
The final project melds expository and creative writing into one fun and challenging assignment.

教師專業知識和證書
學士學位 由 University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
My passion -- as well as my professional background -- is writing. Professionally, I hold a B.A. in Journalism from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and I've been published in numerous newspapers and magazines. I've also taught writing and literature classes to students of all ages and abilities.
On a personal note, I have homeschooled all five of my children and taught them all to read and write... and with each it has been a different experience! What's easy for one child is not easy for another. When I teach online, I always remember that it's important to keep learning fun and to incorporate different methods of teaching to reach all my students.
