Some of my writings
irenezundel@gmail.comSynopsis of my writing experience:
I have published dozens of articles in mainstream and online magazines, including Birds and Blooms, Taste of Home, The Herb Companion, and the award-winning child development publication, Wonder Years.
My article, Cooking with Edible Flowers, was published on the Bon Apetit website and was used in a segment on their Epicurious TV show.
I authored a book, “Make your Kid a Genius: Tools to Enhance your Child’s Learning from the Womb through College” and published an educational newsletter of the same name.
The book chronicled my personal experience of home-schooling my prematurely born son, expected to have developmental and learning lags, and who scored college-level proficiency in math and English by age 11.
The newsletter featured articles, author and expert interviews, and book and product reviews related to both home schooling and alternative learning modalities, such as the Montessori method, Super-learning and the Mozart Effect.
I have also done some writing for newspapers and commercial websites,
and projects involving in-depth research and report writing on complex subjects such as terrorism and Islamo-fascism.
Twenty three samples of my work related to education and child development can be found at http://www.eduguide.org (formerly www.partnershipforlearning.org). To view them, type my last name, Zundel, into the search box.
I have also had eight articles published by the Dollar Stretcher, on their website that gets 40,000 hits a week, and in their print newsletter, which has a circulation of 200,000.
