Drawn behind the stack of books is a graduation cap in chalk, illustrating that we'll be studying Taylor Swift in a university-like setting.

Welcome to the School of Taylor Swift, where Taylor’s lyrics are the syllabus.

I’m a former English teacher, and I’ve turned my love of Taylor Swift’s lyrics into a literary classroom for fellow fans.

Here we don’t just analyze lyrics, we explore the full universe of Taylor Swift: her songwriting craft, her evolving narratives, her cultural impact, and the rich intertextual world that connects albums, eras, and easter eggs.

Whether you’re new to the fandom, or ready to go beyond the surface, this is your classroom for understanding Taylor as an artist, storyteller, and phenomenon.
