ABOUT
Hi Teacher Friends! I’m Nikki, aka The Write Bright Lady.
Making writing instruction simple is what I love! I have the joy of helping teachers across the country teach students to write essays. We are not meant to do this teaching thing on our own. Let’s keep building a community of teachers that supports one another.
What can I help you with?
