The Curriculum Manual

The Curriculum Manual is a proven, easy-to-use guide to lead successful workshops.

Our memoir workshop Curriculum Manual was tested over years as Denis Ledoux taught writing in varied venues—senior centers, university classrooms, writing retreats, pull-out high school groups, libraries, in his office, etc.

Over the years of trial and error, of refining my presentation, I have worked out the kinks in leading a memoir workshop. I have noticed that when I deviate from this memoir workshop curriculum, I can find myself at an impasse. ‘Why aren’t my writers getting it?’ I might wonder. Then I realize I skipped a step—or have reversed some. I have to go back and  cover the material as it is laid out in the memoir workshop Curriculum Manual. It’s that tightly written.

The Curriculum Manual was written by an M.A.ED. with years of teaching experience behind him. He poured all his knowledge into creating the best memoir writing curriculum you’ll find anywhere at any price. This teaching tool is a keeper.
