Our journey began with a simple yet powerful idea: to support teachers in their quest to inspire and engage students. From presenting at international conferences to hosting online workshops across continents, our commitment remains steadfast. Whether you’re a seasoned teacher or just starting out, we’re here to walk alongside you, offering insights drawn from years of experience and a deep understanding of the challenges educators face today.

Teachers no longer have to travel long distances or for many hours to access high quality professional development.

3 Ways We Can Help

Professional Development Courses

Teachers who are confident in their subject knowledge are better able to engage students in their learning. And engaged students will remain in school longer.

By embracing the options that digital technology provides, we can produce practical, high quality, subject specific, curriculum agnostic, borderless professional development options that build confidence in language and literature teachers.

WTW World Lit Podcast. Decolonising Literature

Our World Lit podcast is central to our mission.

Understanding that colonialism and cultural imperialism have impacted much of the literature taught around the world is important. To connect closely with literature and develop strong critical thinking skills our students need to engage with the historical and cultural events of the country where the literature was created.

In the WTW World Lit Podcast – Decolonising Literature we speak to teachers and writers in other countries about their literature. About the culture and history that lies behind the texts we are teaching.

Coaching for Australian Teachers

While most of our programs are curriculum agnostic, our current coaching programs focus on the Australian curriculum. Again, utilising technology we can offer valuable coaching for English teachers who want to increase their subject knowledge and pedagogy.

There is no single body of knowledge to be taught in English and literature. Poetry, novels, plays and films, amongst other texts, are used to teach students the skills they will need when they leave school. We wrote about this on our blog.

As new issues arise and new texts are released, it is necessary for English teachers to keep current. That can be hard to do in the business and immediacy of a school setting. Our coaching programs give them the space and help to do this.

What Our Colleagues Say

Having worked in secondary schools with both teachers I have no hesitation in recommending them. Their knowledge of what is required for student success in English is indisputable. As is their compassion and sensitivity to colleagues who they will mentor and support on their teaching journey.

We are proud of the diverse and enriching experiences we have shared with educators around the globe. From webinars to workshops, our programs are designed to inspire and equip teachers with the tools they need to excel.

We have a long way to go, but we know that it starts with teachers.

Teachers are at the centre of great teaching and learning, and if they get equal access to high quality professional development and support, their student’s outcomes will improve.
