Storytelling for Students
Helping young people write honestly and think critically.
Give students a reason to write the truth — and the tools to do it well.
Sam has spent his career with students who think they're "bad at writing" or "not motivated." They're not broken — they just haven't been shown how to think differently yet. This session helps young people tell true stories and think critically about their own.
Available as an assembly, a classroom workshop, or professional development for educators.
What the room walks away with
- Why honest writing beats "correct" writing for engagement
- Prompts that pull real stories out of reluctant students
- Connecting writing to identity and purpose
- Critical thinking through storytelling
