Gerann Taylor is a lifelong educator and puzzle enthusiast who believes that learning should be engaging, meaningful, and fun. With degrees in English and counseling, Gerann has taught students of all ages, from middle schoolers to college graduates. Her passion for teaching has always gone beyond academics, and she wants kids to have intellectual curiosity, emotional growth, and critical thinking.

After years of witnessing the challenges students face with traditional learning methods, Gerann sought to create a resource that would combine education with enjoyment. This vision led to the creation of her book, Word Search with Theme for Everyone.

Her puzzles are not just word games; they are tools designed to strengthen vocabulary, enhance problem-solving skills, and provide a calming mental escape for readers of all ages.

Gerann’s teaching career is marked by a commitment to innovation and inclusivity. One of her proudest accomplishments was creating an African American literature course for high school students—a pioneering effort that reflected her dedication to representation and cultural understanding. This same creativity and thoughtfulness shine through in her puzzle-making, where she carefully selects themes that resonate with readers, from everyday life and family to sports and outdoor activities.

Beyond her professional achievements, Gerann Taylor is someone who simply loves to make sense of things—whether it’s crafting the perfect puzzle or helping others connect with the joy of learning. Her goal is to make learning accessible and enjoyable for everyone, offering a meaningful break from the hustle of daily life.

Through Word Search with Theme for Everyone, Gerann combines her passion for education with her love for puzzles, inspiring readers to think critically, relax, and rediscover the joy of words. With plans to expand into digital puzzles and other creative projects, Gerann continues to innovate and share her belief that learning can—and should—be fun.
