The adult literacy sector has been developed over the years through the work of many dedicated, long-term literacy workers who have gained a wealth of knowledge. The field experienced a notable increase in staff turnover during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Many experienced instructors accelerated their retirement plans.
As these specialists retire, their knowledge and experience are at risk of being lost, pointing to the need for responsive training for new practitioners.
Together, we’re excited to bring you MTML’s series of podcasts, where experienced practitioners share practical advice, and effective strategies, to inspire and guide those who are just starting out in the world of literacy. Join us as we honour the legacy of those who have dedicated their lives to literacy. Tune in and learn from the best!”

Welcome to The Literacy Legacy Project.
In this episode, we're going to be reflecting on small groups and adult literacy programs and how important they are because it's a combination of effective communication, empathy and structured teaching approach. We will ask two experienced adult literacy practitioners to reflect on the incredible value of writing groups in adult literacy classes. We'll hear how these groups not only build writing confidence but also create connections to ourselves and the world we live in. It will include a process to create and facilitate a success writing group which offers a supportive community where learners can grow, share and learn from each other.
