Our Podcast
Teaching Writers Speak
Teaching Writers Speak is for educators, researchers, and creative folks like us who view writing as a vehicle for change, both in our institutions and in the world at large. We chat with teachers, professors, community educators, and researchers to better support one another as teachers of writing, our students as writers, and our work as scholars in the field of critical literacy. You can find the show on Apple Music, Spotify, or wherever you listen to your favourite podcasts.
Teaching Writers Speak is produced by members of the Toronto Writing Project. Daniela Bascuñan, Velta Douglas, Will Edwards, Rob Simon, Ty Walkland, Melissa Arasin, and Celeste Kirsh have all helped to bring this podcast to life. Our theme music is composed by Doug Friesen.
