TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Several years running poetry and story writing workshops with newcomer students in classrooms from grade 3-12

MY TEACHING STYLE

I love to develop students' confidence with writing and help them to express themselves through writing stories and poems. I also focus on creativity and accessing your imagination. I am a publishing geek, and publish class books and anthologies regularly and have my own indie self publishing company www.bluejaypress.ca

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

This year I was very proud to publish a collection of the best poems from all my poetry programs over the last 2 and a half years. Fifty poets, mostly newcomers and many ESL students from grade 6 to 12 were included in 'We Carry New Lives' - the book is awaiting permission from our school board director to be published externally - watch this space!

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

A writer and have studied creative writing with many further education courses including: poetry, memoir, short stories, novel writing and writing for children.
