After a 30-year career as a reporter/writer in Milwaukee, I began substitute teaching in 2015. Found out I absolutely love teaching and it seems the kids love having me as a teacher, too. These two years mark the first time in my life I hated to see the school year end. I've been able to boil a few ideas about good writing into very simple and easy-to-follow tips.
Having been a professional writer for many years, I know what constitutes good writing. With these experiences I know how to present these ideas in simple terms that kids can understand and follow. Better yet, I also believe that if my tips are followed, kids can find writing to be fun. All learning should be fun.
Being able to write well allowed me to have a career in sportswriting covering the Packers, Brewers and Bucks. I still cover sports events as a freelancer but have found a passion for teaching over the past two years as a substitute teacher. I want to share my love of writing with anyone who wants to learn.
