FREE Online Resource - Custom Book Discussion Boards for your Class!
I have nine years of teaching experience in 7th-12th grade English classes, including a creative writing elective. I was always looking for ways to get my class engaged in discussions with students at other schools, but I could never find the right platform for our needs.

Teaching style
I enjoy creative assignments that ask students to create original work while having fun. I also enjoy teaching students to write critically and to think analytically.

Additional biographical information
I recently created ReadWriteSnack.com to promote more discussion between students from different schools in a high-quality online environment.
Teachers, please email me books you are teaching and I can create posts and discussion boards for each title! ReadWriteSnack.com is a productive online environment for your class and for 7th-12th grade students everywhere.
I also offer online tutoring and writing feedback, so if you have students who need some extra support outside of school, this might be an affordable and convenient option you can recommend to them. Let me know if you have questions!
