Description

If teaching writing feels like one long game of catch-up… this episode will flip your perspective.

In today’s episode, I’m revealing the six writing skills I teach first in my student-led writing workshop and why the order of instruction matters more than you think. You’ll learn how to teach skills that build on each other and give students instant momentum.

We’ll talk about:
 ✔️ The confidence-building skill you should always start with
 ✔️ Why “show, don’t tell” can wait
 ✔️ How to build writing fluency one layer at a time
 

If you’ve ever felt like your writing block is just… not clicking, this episode will give you the structure and strategy to change that.

🎧 Plus, I’ll share how to keep these six skills spiraling through everything you teach all year long.
