Writing Thoughts by Coach Carter
My excitement when I first started college teaching was quickly tempered when I realized my English 101 students struggled with writing almost as much as most of my high school studenst. One young man said to me, after taking just one of my writing seminars, “It all makes sense now. In high school people kept telling me what I was doing wrong but they couldn’t tell me how to fix it.” I quickly learned sometimes writers need a roadmap.
Over the years, I have been showing students how to fix their writing. Research indicates reading, and its complement writing, are vital to college, career and life success. Over the years I have been joined by other educators who share in my enthusiasm to help students become master communicators.
All learners have the ability to excell because writing is just thinking on paper , and everybody thinks! I especially enjoy witnessing neurodivergent and struggling students discover their voice.
Writing should be natural and easy, just like breathing, but those who struggle with the writing process may need a bit of structure at first to embrace independence because creativity often blossoms when constraints are forced upon us.. Creativity, the freedom to do something different, helps struggling writers.
