About

Hello! My name is Amanda. I am a rising freshman student from Virginia. I specialize in essay writing here on Schoolhouse, as well as the development of creative narratives. I'm also introducing new topics in enrichment!

My favorite books include mysteries, such as those by Agatha Christie, and dystopia novels like "Scythe," "Shatter Me," and "Divergent." I have a wide taste, so DM me if you need/have book suggestions or need writing help!

Beyond reading, I'm a creative writer and I've won a Scholastic Writing Regional Silver Key award in my first year submitting. I also enjoy expressing myself through content creation and blogging.

I love participating in school clubs. I had founded and presided over my school's Current Events Club. I was also a member of the National Junior Honor Society, second place for award rate in our top-ranked Model UN team, and I was a school new-student Ambassador.

Upcoming Sessions

Word of the Day for 365 Days!

    169th session

New learners are always welcome!! In this series, there are two sessions every single day for a whole year! We have one in the morning and one in the evening, you can pick which of those you want to attend based on your schedule. How it works: We go over the pronunciation, definition, synonyms and antonyms, origin, (and maybe some fun facts) and how to use the word in a sentence. There is always a super fun Kahoot about the word. Then we have idiom of the day where we introduce a new idiom, it's meaning, and how it's used in a sentence. Then, at the very end, we have two quotes of the day! They may be inspirational, or funny, or both! I hope to see you there! These sessions are perfect for expanding your vocabulary.

✍️⭐Crafting Captivating Narratives✍️⭐

    11th session

Update (9/5/2024): New learners are always welcome! We are currently between quarters. It's recommended to join the series between quarters to understand and follow along adequately. This series is perfect for our narrative writers of all levels, whether aspiring or professional. Through the power of the Narrative Arc, we'll learn how we can shape stories to give the reader choice. And for what could be the first time ever, we'll have the option to use the second perspective in our writing. Make sure to come prepared with Google Docs and Google Forms depending on your comfort level! At the end of our series, we'll share and present our stories with other learners for those who are comfortable, so get ready to try other's games/creations. Also, times are flexible, so let me know if they don't work for you!

Thank you for the session!

Amanda, I really like how you approached this series and particularly this session! The slideshow you prepared really pulled its weight; it kept everyone organized and on the same track, which is important considering how much content you covered in this session. I love the prompts that you chose and how you made an active attempt to catch all of the learners up if they missed the previous session. This prompt really made the learners think and come up with their own interpretation of the painting, which shows the beauty of stimulus-based writing. It is so subjective, and seeing everyone's essays proved that. Wonderful job overall!
