In this live course, I share my insights from my experience as a school librarian and governors’ clerk, into how teachers use children's books in the classroom, what they are looking for in school visits and how to prepare for them. I will be joined by voice coach, Cat Clancy, and confidence coach, Vie Portland.

In this week-long mini course, I show you what teachers want and need, how to increase your visibility and plan the next three months of blog content – all before the end of term, so that you can take action and let your blogs do the work while you get on with important things like resting, spending time with friends or family or even writing! Create blogs that will resonate with teachers so that they are excited and eager to learn more about you, your books and your school visits.
