I cannot say enough about this conference. It was hands-on and very interactive. Not only did I learn things about teaching my students, I also learned about myself as a writer and I want to start writing my own stories. Hands down, best conference I have attended--worth every penny! Holly Pace, grade 8
If this workshop doesn't ignite your passion for teaching writing you might want to make sure you have a fuse!
