IV Teach Committee Meeting

About the Event

The I.V. Teach Committee focuses on enhancing teaching and mentorship at Girls Write Now. The committee is responsible for developing and refining teaching techniques, educational materials, and learning experiences to better serve both mentors and mentees. Our work includes curriculum development, mentor training, and implementing new educational strategies that foster more effective and engaging learning environments.

In this IV Teach Committee session, participants will explore how to give feedback that is supportive, actionable, and growth-oriented. Through reflection, discussion, and small-group collaboration, committee members will examine common challenges in providing feedback and develop practical strategies for celebrating strengths, offering constructive guidance, asking reflective questions, and recognizing potential biases. Together, we will create a community feedback cheat sheet—a shared resource of language, frameworks, and best practices that can be used across Girls Write Now programs to support more inclusive, encouraging, and impactful learning experiences.
