What happens each class?

- Mini-lesson: Writing your story
- Mini-lesson: Science
- Community discussion
- Guided writing time
What will I get out of the class?
Here's what a recent client had to say:
“Rachel’s insightful questions and skillful guidance helped me understand my personal story from a completely different perspective. Her kind and caring manner made me feel nurtured and supported as I explored, sometimes difficult experiences in my life. I think of Rachel, not only as a teacher, but as a mentor, coach, and fellow traveler.”
On what curriculum is the course based?
This is a completely innovative curriculum developed by me, Rachel Nusbaum. The class blends the science behind our personal stories (called narrative identity) with the how-to's of writing your story. The goal is to get your story out of your head and onto the page. (The goal is not to publish your story or to share it publicly.) Class consists of learning, self-reflection, writing, and community. All of the resources I used to develop the course are shared with the students enrolled.
What's your teaching style like?
Why, I'm so glad you asked. Each week I send out a comprehensive email of the writing lessons and techniques we've discussed in class, links to all of the resources for the week, the weekly quote and a science lesson video. Here's sneak peek into the video included in Class One's email:
What do I need for class?
Just show up with an open mind and heart! I created a special workbook that I will give to you on the first day of class. All of your writing will be completed in the workbook. If your preference for writing is on a keyboard, you will need to bring your laptop.
