Description

Learners will be joining a historical creative writing class, where each week they will be inspired by a different historical era, event or person.


Each 45 minute session will begin with a mini history lesson (20-30 mins), exploring images, videos and factual information. This will be followed with a shared creative writing prompt, along with vocabulary and plot suggestions.


There will be a period of quiet independent writing time, where the microphones will be off. The chat box will remain open for support where needed.


If time allows, learners may have the opportunity to share a favorite sentence or short paragraph from their own writing. This will always be optional, and may not occur every session.


All learners will be invited to upload and share their writing with me after the class, and I will give my response via the messaging mail in the classroom. Writing must be submitted within 5 days of the class.

Neurodivergency Specializations and Accommodations

 I focus on building confidence and foundational skills in a nurturing and empowering environment. I help teens master core concepts, overcome academic challenges, and develop a love for learning that extends beyond the classroom.

  At the heart of my teaching philosophy lies a belief that learning should be an adventure, sprinkled with curiosity. We can be serious about learning without it always being too serious.

  I am a teacher who welcomes all students exactly as they are. I have a lot of experience with neurodivergent children and am a neurodivergent adult myself. Cameras can be turned off if preferred (after a quick hello with the camera on).

  When appropriate, I create 'low-demand' classroom experiences, which can work especially well with learners experiencing anxiety or those with PDA. I encourage and welcome participation, but am very quick to adapt to learners who are unable or unwilling to partake in an obvious and active manner. This can mean only using the chat, or even only listening.
