Had it not been for OWP, I may have left teaching two or three years ago. I've gained so many professional relationships and friendships through the MAT program. I not only have more confidence in myself as a teacher, but also as a writer.

High school English teacher at Clermont-Northeastern -
I feel confident as a professional now and more of an expert in my field!
Carrie Geers
2nd grade teacher at Little Miami Local School District -
This experience (the MAT) was liberating and empowering. Being a part of OWP gave me my teacher voice and allowed me to be an advocate for my teacher peers in my district and for myself when I have challenged the status quo. This program has made me aware of the research that I do constantly and has encouraged me to document and reflect so that I can share it with others.
