Hi my name is TGJ to TGJ's Writing Academy and one of the things that my learners get the most excited about in my writing classes is that they get to write about whatever they want to write about. Now of course they do have to follow the structure of the assigned essay. They do have to include all the elements, the introduction, the hook, the main ideas, the thesis statement, but they stay invested and engaged in the writing because they get to choose their topic. There will be plenty of time in their life when someone's going to tell them what they have to write about. So parents one of my tips for you is to let them write about what they enjoy writing about. Once they get comfortable with writing about things that they like writing about, it becomes easier when they have to write about topics that they may have less of an interest in.
