Nora Chassler
I grew up in NYC in the 1980s and 90s, but have lived in Scotland for over twenty years. I’m an experienced teacher of ‘Story Skills’; a classroom program that fosters a joyous, hugely creative and sometimes very high energy process that engages deeply with the structure of a great story. I’ve taught in schools in Dundee and Edinburgh, from nursery to Sixth Year.
I also work as a scriptwriter for TV and film and have taught scene writing to older high school students with fantastic results. I’m keen to bring script writing to younger students and other groups.
As a creative practitioner I am an acclaimed author of novels, flash fiction and poetry. I have recently passed my viva after a funded PhD at the University of Edinburgh and when I submit my final corrections in three months time I will be Dr Nora Chassler.
I will happily provide references, sample lessons and stories I’ve produced with students upon request. Please feel free to email me with any questions or to make an appointment to chat.
