Curriculum Writing and Learning Design
john tillman
communication - management - education - entertainment
I have 25+ years of wide-ranging experience in education, communication, and entertainment. I have managed teams of writers, performers, and artists to design curriculum and learning experiences for children and adults within educational, artistic, and religious non-profit spaces.
I have designed and written standards-aligned curricula for out-of-school, afterschool, and classroom use, including designing a new product to help combat Covid-related learning loss.
I led the writing department for Elevate curriculum and was Head Writer for Small Group and online elements. I also wrote for 252 Kids, Incredible Islands, and Standard Publishing.
I am the managing editor of The Park Forum, a non-profit, Bible engagement, devotional ministry. As a part of this ministry I created and run a yearly program to train and coach ministry students in writing and to edit and publish their work.
I also maintain an artistic career as a playwright, theater director, actor, puppeteer, and voice actor. I have written short plays, animated shorts, and performed in a variety of professional settings.
