About Charmane

Hello! I am quite passionate about writing... prose, poetry, song... My interests in writing go back as far as I can remember. After 5th grade, my poetry was included in _Teaching Writing in K-8 Classrooms_ by Iris M. Tiedt (Prentice-Hall, 1983). My grades in writing were always high, and I was able to waive writing classes at the university level. I graduated _magna cum laude_ with a bachelor's degree in Creative Arts--a course of study which included an emphasis in Music and a sub-emphasis in English Language Arts. I have self-published a novel, that is currently listed on Abe Books at a "collectible" price. As far as teaching experience goes, so far, I have only worked with children. I have home-educated a child for first through third grades, and for the middle school years. I have worked as a teacher's assistant in Waldorf and Lifeways educational settings (kindergarten), and have worked as a substitute-teacher for the public schools (all grade levels, although I was particularly fond of middle and high school). I served as a Reading Proficiency Tutor at Madison Elementary School during the 2009-2010 school year (first and second grades). If you're looking for a definitively individualistic approach to further developing your own writing skills (or those of a loved one, ages 7 and up), I just might be what you're seeking! Hello!
