Online Author Visits

Kenn Nesbitt’s School Author Visit Programs

Skype Author Visits

In addition to my in-person author visits, I also “visit” hundreds of schools each year via the Internet, using Skype (or online videoconferencing software for schools that can’t use Skype). Skype author visits are live, online, interactive videoconference presentations, that require only a PC or Mac with a broadband Internet connection. I can present to any number of students in each session, limited only by your space and equipment (projector, speakers, etc.)
