How do you use Shmoop?

I use Shmoop for it all! If students aren't quite grasping what's going on, we Shmoop the next day after a long night's reading. It has been especially helpful while reading Shakespeare! Sometimes I even find out things on Shmoop that I wasn't fully aware of. Me and my students love to Shmoop!!

What is the coolest experience you've had using Shmoop?

We use Shmoop as a verb in class now. Kids ask if we are going to Shmoop in class all the time!

We do, too, Jade. We do, too.

If you could only read three books for the rest of your life, which would they be, and why?

1. Crime and Punishment (I think because I was a Psych major. I keep reading it.)
2. The Catcher in the Rye (Keeps getting more entertaining each time I read it.)
3. First They Killed My Father (An amazing memoir about the genocide in Cambodia.)

Anything else to add?

Shmoop makes everything fun!

Aw, you're making us blush.

 Do you know a Shmooperstar educator who should be featured on Shmoop? Have them apply. Or, you know, nominate yourself.
