Georgia Heard is now booking for 2023 and 2024.
I have spoken at hundreds of venues around the world, including in schools and at education and writing conferences. I care deeply about my students and about writing and teaching. I offer inspirational as well as practical keynotes and workshops on writing, teaching writing and Heart Maps®. I am also the founder of The Poet’s Studio where I teach online writing workshops.

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.

– 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.
