What Our Teachers Say
“Fantastic! So many amazing and easy to use ideas with simple application and minimal effort but maximum results! Seven Steps to Writing Success creates a spark and love of writing.”
– Chantal, Teacher
“I can’t express to you how passionate I am about the program. I have been implementing it with enormous success in my class. The results so far have been incredibly impressive and the impact on the children’s skills and enthusiasm for writing transformative. Even the parents of my students are using the language of the Seven Steps with myself and their children.”
– Diahnn B, Assistant Principal
“A wonderful experience that will change the way I teach writing from this day forth. I wish all my colleagues could be here with me. A whole school approach, both primary and secondary, is a must. I will do my best to share my enthusiasm with others.”
– Fiona Richens, Teacher
“Love it. Your team is fabulous – your program is changing the way we teach. Thank you!”
– Leigh Tankey, Head of Curriculum
“I have used this program for the first time this year and the difference in my children’s writing has been outstanding. We had our assembly today and they demanded a Sizzling Start be included at the beginning. My class now cheers when I tell them it is writing time! Thank you for changing the way I teach writing.”
– Paula Atkinson, Teacher
Why the Seven Steps works so well
One language from Foundation to Secondary, for every writing lesson and feedback.
Set Solid Foundations
Writing starts well before you put pen to paper. Using the Seven Steps with ‘pre-writers’ shows them how to develop key elements of a story without writing a word. They start practising creativity.
Empower With Win After Win
When your students feel successful they start to enjoy themselves, and are motivated to seek additional wins. Unlock lessons where students continuously see their growth each and every day.
Uncover Each Unique Voice
Within each form and type, writers develop a personal style. Learn to uncover, and enhance each student’s unique voice by providing specific, actionable feedback that students can use to constantly improve.
