I've been working with the team behind this network and I think it will be a great way for poetry performance scholars to stay connected. Join us for the launch of this global network next week!

It was such a joy to bring together my training as a teacher with my focus on spoken word poetry, both in this course and in the resulting resource on teaching with spoken word. I'm proud of the materials my students created and I really hope they can be useful to other teachers as well!
