Secret to teaching writing
Ancient formula newly discovered

When I began teaching writing, I wasn't a certified English teacher. Thirty+ years later, I'm still not a certified English teacher, but a long line of students learned to write in my classes.

You don't need credentials from a government agency to help students learn to write. Whether you teach in a public school, a private school, or home school, you can teach writing.

The secret to teaching writing is printed in thousands of research articles and books.

So how come it’s still a secret?

Because many teachers are still looking for a way of turning out good writers that is easy, fast, and fun. (They also want thin thighs in 30 days without diet or exercise.)

There is no easy, fast, fun way to turn out high school graduates with the writing skills required by colleges and employers. But there is a simple way to assure students have writing skills they need.

Stick around. I'll share what I've learned so you can begin teaching so your students become competent writers — and live to tell the story.
