Hi, I’m Greg.

I teach students how to write clearly and I teach teachers how to become confident and competent writing teachers.  

If there’s one thing that guarantees a child’s success, I believe it’s the ability to write clearly. However, when I started teaching years ago, it quickly became apparent most students struggled with writing. I was teaching college students as well as at-risk teens, and both groups of students were struggling to get their wonderful ideas from their heads onto the page in a clear and logical way. So I created a color-coded visual aid that showed students where their ideas are placed on the page. The success of this “map” led me to expand my ideas, and soon other teachers were seeking me out.

I wanted to help, so I broke my system down into easy-to-follow steps every teacher could master. In just a short time, teachers from elementary through high school became expert writing instructors. 

Now, I’m happy to bring this method to you. It doesn’t take a doorstop-sized textbook or years of education to become a confident writing teacher—this method is all you need. The Baran Method will help your students become the successful writers they deserve to be and it will help you become the confident writing teacher you want to be.

Happy Writing,

Greg Baran
