Now booking in-person and virtual keynotes, workshops and school visits

I love teaching both children and teachers and I have visited classrooms and given workshops to teachers and writers in every state in the U.S. and in dozens of International schools. I am available for keynotes, workshops, and school visits either in-person or virtually.

In-Person Visit Guidelines

  • “I am always in amazement when I watch Georgia sprinkle her magic on any age.”

    Karen Basil, Literacy Coach

  • “Thank you SO much for your wonderful work with our students this week. They are enjoying it so much and so are we! You are making a huge impact on our students and we are incredibly grateful!”

    Jamie Herold, 3rd grade teacher

  • “I absolutely loved this seminar. I got so many new ideas and different approaches and even different ways of thinking. I’m very excited to go to class and try many of these ideas with children.”

    Teacher Evaluation After a Full-Day Presentation

  • “Our son was so inspired by the poetry workshop you are leading with the students this week. Yesterday, as on Monday, he couldn’t wait to share the poem he wrote with us. He announced after the workshop that he intends to write poetry his entire life and that he wants to share poetry with his kids when he is an adult."

    Parent After A Virtual Poetry Workshop with Students

  • “I’ve never been to a workshop where there were so many tearful, personal moments as well as great classroom suggestions."
