    TWT: Terrific Wonderful Tips
    Okay, I know that TWT stands for Two Writing Teachers but it could stand for Terrific Wonderful Tips, too. Melanie and Stacey present easily digestible information in a heartfelt way. I get out of my car feeling energized and excited to write with my students. This podcast is a must-listen for anyone who wants to create a caring community of wonderful writers.
  • Erika Victor
    How do they do it?
    TWT always seems to know just what I need (often before I even know it). Their tips and resources are practical and applicable to many writers. I love the new podcast and the different way to learn with the authors and guests.
  • mbhmaine
    Love Tip for Tomorrow!
    I’m a long time TWT blog fan, but a podcast novice. I’m already hooked on Tip for Tomorrow! I’ll be back to listen to other episodes, knowing I’ll find practical information and inspiration to support my growth in the classroom as well as my student’s. What a great resource!
  • DarbyNY
    Perfect complement to the blog!
    Fresh conversations all about responsive literacy instruction. I love how there are the shorter episodes too - perfect for quick car rides - ideas to think about and try out.
  • Nnnnnnnnnjar
    I love this podcast!!
    Each episode is so thoughtful and informative. I especially love the “tip for tomorrow” episodes, which is perfect for busy teachers. Great interviews and topics!
  • j*b*4
    Helpful ELA resource!
    I’ve always loved the TWT Blog and now I love this podcast! The “tips for tomorrow” minis are always easy to implement immediately.
  • PageLiteracy
    Your Go-To Writing Resource!
    The TWT blog has been an incredible resource for teachers, literacy coaches, administrators and beyond, and the podcast is the icing on the cake. I appreciate that some episodes are quick tips (5 mins or less) while others take a deeper dive, when I have the time and capacity for more.

    Great resource!
    I am a retired ELAR teacher and I now serve as an instructional coach. I’ll be sharing this podcast with 2 teachers I work with; what a motivating and beneficial resource!
