“I have been a teacher and an acting coach for over 12 years and an actor and director for over 30 years. After taking the Community Word Project training program (TATIP) my teaching skills improved enormously. I’m much more focused and confidant when I teach and now I have a lesson plan format that’s clear and precise.”
“CWP cares about the young people in our community and what they have to express. I have a passion for bringing change to the world and just like CWP I believe it starts with the young. I’ve also made some amazing connections through CWP especially Wingspan Arts where I have a great job that I love. I get to teach the students, continue my training and get paid for it. I’ve made a point of doing what’s asked of me in the program and it’s paid off big time. I continue to meet great people through the relationships I’ve developed since starting with CWP. I can also call on CWP at anytime for advice or a reference and they always help me with what ever I need. Thanks CWP for getting me started on my new career as a Teaching Artist!”
