5.0 out of 5 stars Highly valuable reading, February 5, 2009
By 
This review is from: Strategies for Teaching First-Year Composition (Paperback)
The short chapters in this book are packed with excellent information. I highly recommend this book to anyone entering the teaching of writing as a career/hobby (LOL... if you're an adjunct, that's all we can really call it if your level of pay is similar to many institutions).

The chapters are written by authors whose names I see frequently on the WPA listserv, so it's like reading work from dear friends.
