LIVE Interactive Workshops
Each month, join Greg for a live, interactive writing workshop that brings The Baran Method to life. Practical and engaging, these sessions remove the mystery surrounding writing so both students and teachers can immediately improve both how they write and how they teach.
Greg takes one focused part of writing—like crafting a strong paragraph, developing an essay, analyzing a story, finding solid evidence, or revising for clarity—and walks you through it step-by-step. You’ll see how good writing works, practice it together, and walk away with strategies you can use immediately.
Kids are welcome to join—yet those teaching The Method will find it even more gooder! You’ll come away with a clear understanding of how to confidently teach and support your child’s writing. No more frustration, no more struggle—just real progress and growing confidence!
Each session is focused and easy-to-follow—because learning to write well shouldn’t be overwhelming. Teachers and students will leave each workshop saying, “Now I get it.”
Smart Writers enjoy 10% off every purchase for being a smart writer—all curriculum including textbooks, workbooks, grammar books, teacher guides, and video courses. It’s our way of saying thank you for being a Smart Writer. You’re investing in a child’s journey as they become a better writer, and we’re here to make that journey a little smoother.
