Along with teaching 150+ students in literature and composition classes each year, I speak and conduct workshops across the country and world on topics that include:
- Better, faster, and more equitable feedback practices
- Flash Feedback practices
- The essential role of feedback in remote learning
- Best practices in grammar and rhetoric instruction
- Building metacognitive learners
- Improving student motivation and academic identities
- Increasing student retention through thoughtful revisiting and reflection
- Upgrading essay, narrative, and research paper instruction
- Teaching students the writing process
- How to make classroom writing and reading more authentic
- Conducting meaningful, regular conferences when one has 150+ students
- Writing and literacy instruction basics for new teachers
If you are interested in having me come to your school/district/conference for a keynote or workshop or would like more information, please contact me. As a full-time teacher, my availability is limited, but I would love to connect and help you with your writing and literacy goals!
