About

Welcome to my novella club! Throughout this series, we will be reading classic novellas (short novels) from some of the most influential and famous authors of all time! The goal of this series is for you to develop the skills to analyze and appreciate works of literature. Since novellas provide tons of room for higher thinking analysis, in each session we will be discussing plot, character, setting, and deeper meanings of the novella that we are reading. To make the series entertaining, there will be many occasions when you will have debates among fellow learners. And, we will even play trivia games relating to our current novella!

My name is Nick, and I'm a high school student from Maryland, USA. I'm a passionate literature tutor, coach, and R&W moderator. I teach classic fiction novellas from the most influential and renowned authors who ever lived. In my sessions, I focus on the literary devices and characters of these books. I seek to develop and fine-tune my learners' reading and analysis skills, which will come in handy throughout their lives. Also, I want my students to appreciate the power and beauty of the written word. "Today a reader, tomorrow a leader" –Margaret Fuller
