Readers and Writers Workshop is a student-centered instructional model that fosters independent learning and skill development in literacy. The core principles of this approach include: Workshop Structure: Mini-lessons: Short, focused instruction on a specific reading or writing skill or strategy Independent Practice: Students engage in independent reading and/or writing, applying the skills learned Conferencing: One-on-one or small group work between teacher and students to provide personalized feedback and support Student-Centered Learning: Emphasizes student choice and ownership over the reading and writing process Encourages students to select their own "just right" books and writing topics Promotes active engagement and self-reflection through activities like goal-setting and peer sharing Differentiated Instruction: Teachers use ongoing assessment to tailor mini-lessons, conferences, and assignments to individual student needs Flexible grouping allows students to receive targeted support or enrichment as required Accommodations and modifications ensure accessibility for diverse learners Focus on Process: Equal emphasis on the development of reading and writing skills, strategies, and habits Teaches students to view reading and writing as iterative, recursive processes Fosters meta-cognitive awareness through modeling, think-alouds, and reflection The Readers and Writers Workshop approach aims to cultivate confident, independent learners who are equipped with the skills and dispositions to engage meaningfully with texts and express themselves effectively through writing. Its student-centric focus and emphasis on the reading-writing connection make it a powerful framework for literacy instruction.

English Writing - For improving your abilities in formal and creative contexts (The Hague)
John
John is an excellent tutor. He goes through the material very carefully and explains every aspect in a clear and understandable way. In my case this was for the subject matter linguistics. John is also a fantastic creative writing tutor and was super helpful to me when I was writing my essays. He is someone who really cares about giving his students a quality lesson that they can benefit from and I cannot recommend him enough.
