May 20th-24th Writing Workshops and Semester Tutoring w/ Hannah Yeager

Hello everyone!
 I wanted to send out my workshops for the end of May earlier rather than later so that way you all can start thinking about it and have the dates. I will also be offering online writing tutoring this semester and in the Fall. If you would like more information on tutoring and what that looks like, please let me know by sending me an email. If you are signing up with your charter, please sign up with Yeager Educational Services.
 I also wanted to see if there was any interest in my Creative Writing Workshop. If I get five or more students interested in that workshop, then I will offer it at the end of May the same week as the other ones from 2:30-4pm.
 Please send me an email with any questions you might have. 
 Thank you,
 Hannah Yeager
