I really want my daughter to attend the writing class this summer. Last year was amazing! I really see the improvement with her writing, and also see how it sparked her interest in the writing process. — J.P.
Michael really enjoyed the Writing Project. He would come home very excited about what he was working on. This has built his self-confidence by far… Thanks for all your hard work. Great program. — T.B.
The GVWP writing workshop provided my children the opportunity to meet with writing coaches to help guide their thinking and writing skills, not only on paper, but on the computer too. I was also pleased they learned programs on the Mac. Thank you for a fabulous job! — R.G.
As a parent and a teacher, I recognize the value of summer days spent writing. I walked away with lessons and ideas that made me a better teacher, and my children walked away with skills and confidence that made them better students. — K.B.
Thank you for giving my son the opportunity to take your class. I feel it’s enriched his writing and composition skills. — S.S.
Thank you for your workshop. My son was excited about writing and enjoyed coming each day. — A.G.
My daughter is now a senior at Manteca High School. For four years, she attended the “Writing & Technology Workshop” programs sponsored by Great Valley Writing Project. The workshop made a significant difference in her writing development, and today, writing is one of her strongest academic skills. — R.A.
