Welcome

 

The West Tennessee Writing Project is located in the Department of English at The University of Tennessee at Martin.  It is one of 197 sites of the National Writing Project.

 

The purpose of WTWP is to improve writing in our schools. It operates under these principles:

 

 *writing will improve as writing instruction improves
 *the best teacher of a teacher is another teacher
 *teachers of writing must be writers themselves
