Reading & Writing Skills Essential For College & Scholarship Success - Episode 713

I recently spoke with Callie Birch of Storyweaver Co about the importance of reading literature and how the craft of writing prepares students for college.

Calli has taught English Literature & Writing in London, England (in a British school), Texas, and Arkansas. She has a BA in English from Abilene Christian University & MA in Humanities (with emphasis in Literature) from University of Texas at Dallas. Calli has 12 years of experience in the classroom and then homeschooled her daughters for 6 years. Now, through her company, Storyweaver Co., Calli is passionate about helping students find and grow their voice.

In our conversation, Calli shared:

• Why should teens read classic literature

• How can we encourage teens to engage meaningfully with literature

• How can we encourage teens to enjoy writing

• The English Education skills essential for college readiness
