"The best writing training I've ever attended."

✓✓✓✓✓

"I was hesitant to register for an online writing training because the ones our district has done in the past were such a stressful experience. I'm glad I went for it, because this was by far the best writing training I've ever attended! April laid out everything I needed to do to make my writing block more engaging, and then she gave out her email address in case we needed help. The best part is, she actually responded to all of the emails I sent and was genuinely interested in helping me." ~ Maggie Jones

"...a comprehensive training with no BS"

"I attended April's training a few weeks ago and have since shared it with all of my colleagues! It is so rare to feel seen and heard in teacher training. Everything about April's system makes sense for ACTUAL classrooms. This is a comprehensive training with no BS like some teacher trainings I've been to." - Megan Brown

April created this training to help other teachers who are struggling with curriculum that don't meet the needs or levels of their students.
