Welcome to the section of this Web site that focuses on the work of our teaching artists. Whether you’re a teaching artist yourself, a classroom teacher, a community program director, a parent, a young poet, or someone simply curious about the work of sharing writing with young people, please explore the information we’ve gathered here.
WritersCorps teaching artists are independent at their sites, and are also part of a group that meets often. Trainings and meetings allow our teachers to support — and share with — each other. Click on Training for the blog of WritersCorps training coordinator, Judith Tannenbaum.
Our teachers create their own lessons and curricula, and there are many opportunities to share these with each other. To see some of these lessons, some of them taken from our book “Jump Write In!,” please click on Teaching Tools.
Many of our teaching artists write memoirs at the end of the program year. To read some of these, please click on Memoirs
And, if you want to apply to become a WritersCorps teaching artist, please click on: Teach for WritersCorps.
