TUTOR

Writing a Small Poem

What is the story? Here is my small poem in What Is a Family?, a middle grade anthology from Pomelo Books that was published on March 30th. Like last year’s middle grade poetry anthology What Is a Friend?, all of the poems in this anthology were ekphrastic poems, poems inspired by art.

I started tutoring in high school, sitting at a kitchen table just like the one in this photo. Now after teaching elementary school, middle school, and college, I’ve come full circle and am working one-to-one again. Only this time, I’m sitting at a table with a laptop using Zoom! (For my day job, I work as a developmental editor with adults who write books for children and teens.)

Now it’s your turn! What is your TUTOR story?
