General Adult Class Testimonials

“The instructor was well prepared and I felt supported as a participant. I enjoyed the writing times she built in. Jenny was a wonderful instructor and did such a wonderful job curating a space that felt safe and connected over Zoom.” – The Personal Essay, Revamped with Jenny Tinghui Zhang

“Shannon is an exceptional instructor. It is clear that she puts so much thought and care in class preparation. She has an incredible teaching style that is warm, engaging, and supportive as well as incredibly challenging. She also did an incredible job leading discussions, which can be hard in in-person classes, but takes on an even more difficult dimension for online classes. The class exceeded my expectations in every possible way.” – Stories that Sing with Shannon Perri

“I found Rachel to be a very skilled teacher—she paced the class well, was well-prepared for each meeting, including having read the students’ submissions, fostered lively and free discussion, and offered specific and valuable feedback. She also handled the transition to on-line for the last two class meetings very well. I think she’s terrific!” – Start Your Novel with Rachel Heng

“I was terrified of writing poetry until I took this class. Now I’m writing poems. That’s in large part because Susan was so kind and nurturing. I know I still have a lot to learn, but now this seems like a journey I’m capable of making.” – You Are A Poet. with Susan Niz

“I left class feeling more inspired than I have been in quite a while.” – LA Seidenberger, Dear Diary with Bridget Brewer
