Great writing arises out of mastery of four different domains: 1) Personal Creativity 2) Telling a Compelling Story 3) Organizing ideas with Structure and Logic 4) Knowing and Applying Grammar Rules While teaching at Cornerstone University (CU), Grand Rapids, MI, I've discovered that most of my students came into class feeling well versed in one or two of these domains, but they had never identified how their strengths and weaknesses influenced their overall writing ability.

One of my favorite subjects to teach is reading because it is the basis for so many skills. It gives me great joy to hear a student reading fluently and enjoying it! I also value music and know that it helps anyone learn new material. I sometimes will create new little song... Read more
