The Word Nerd Tour visits high schools and tutoring programs across the country. Authors Arianne Cohen and Colleen Kinder use Word Nerd enthusiasm and humor to inspire students and teachers alike.
The Word Nerds run creative activities to painlessly teach vocabulary (think rapping with SAT words), while demonstrating how little ideas—like that there must be a better way to study than vocabulary cards—can turn into a lifetime of success. The Word Nerd Tour offers:
For students
- Rollicking assembly and classroom presentations with participatory games and inspirational anecdotes, and the guaranteed memorization of 428 new SAT words.
- Classroom seminar intensives for students, which frequently turn into vocab-filled singalongs
For teachers
- Keynote presentations on how to successfully teach vocabulary in context.
- Department-wide or school-wide teachers seminars on using vocabulary in context.
- Small-group teacher sessions on daily vocabulary integration, and how to successfully teach vocabulary in context
For tutoring companies and students
- Individual and small-group student study sessions. Ongoing sessions are available by phone, or depending on location, in-person in the New York City region.
