Students' need of proficient writing skills is increasing. But are educators prepared to teach students how to write?
Dr. Juliet Wahleithner, co-director of the San Joaquin Valley Writing Project and assistant professor for the Kremen School of Education and Human Development, is dedicated to preparing educators to teach writing.
Dr. Wahleithner did not have a traditional path to becoming a teacher. She was an English major with a passion for studying literature. Early in her teaching career, she realized that she didn’t know how to teach writing. Nor did she have any formal preparation on how to teach writing instruction.
The San Joaquin Valley Writing Project(SJVWP), hosted at Fresno State, is making significant strides in its effort to educate teachers in the art of teaching writing.
