What I Create
I design teacher-facing writing tools that support:
• Claims, evidence, and reasoning
• Revision as decision-making
• Clear organization
• Scaffolded independence
• Standards-aligned instruction
Rooted in classroom experience. Built for real teaching.
Hi, I’m Ali — a teacher, writer, and creator behind The Teaching Compass.
I design writing frameworks and instructional tools that help teachers move students from formulaic writing to clear, independent thinking.
With a background in both education and yoga, my work focuses on bringing clarity, structure, and calm into the writing classroom.
This is a space for thoughtful, practical resources that support both strong instruction and a more grounded approach to teaching.
This is where you can start building clearer, more confident writers—one step at a time.
