WRITING AND READING

Writing and reading go hand in hand. If either is out of balance, communication and comprehension is lost or misunderstood. If a person reads well but has sub par writing skills, they will have difficulty writing what they really want to say. If the person does not read well, they will struggle academically and in the workplace.
They are literacy programs that will help improve reading and writing skills. I am a tutor for a literary program for adults. I have worked with folks who don't read and write well or not at all. I have witnessed the joy of people reading their first book or reciting their first piece of writing.
Don't feel you are dumb because you can't read or write. It has nothing to do with intelligence. Learning or improving your writing and reading benefits you and future generations.
