Hello! My name is Leanna. I am a former Secondary English teacher from Seattle, Washington and have a Bachelors degree in English Language Arts from the University of Washington, and a Masters Degree in Curriculum Design and Instruction from the University of Colorado. This class is to support learners in reading and writing in English. I specialize in reading instruction, especially for dense literary texts, themes, and literary devices, as well as creative writing, essay writing, and writers workshops overall. I am here to help anyone to understand texts better, improve academic writing, or provide services for writing workshops as a creative writing space.
