Introducing Your School to HWT®

In-Servicing Teachers

If you are planning an in-service to introduce your teachers to Handwriting Without Tears®, we would love to help you. We can provide you with scripts, overheads, handouts, and other helpful material. Contact a customer outreach coordinator at 888-983-8409 or janolsen@hwtears.com for assistance.

Planning a HWT Workshop

Handwriting Without Tears has professionally trained certified presenters who are available to come to your area to present the program and lead a workshop for your school or district. We offer workshops and presentations of different lengths to accommodate your needs. Call 402.492.2766 to speak with a workshop coordinator or email coordinator@hwtears.com to learn more about sponsoring your own workshop.

Piloting the HWT Program

If you are interested in piloting the HWT program in a few classrooms to assess the results of the curriculum, we have ideas to assist you.

  • Select a couple of classrooms per grade level to implement the program. Select teachers who you think are receptive to new ideas.
  • If you have an occupational therapist or an advocate of the program who has attended one of our workshops, ask that person to in-service your teachers. We can provide a script and handouts to facilitate the in-service.
  • Contact a customer outreach coordinator at HWT for ideas about how to pilot and evaluate the success of the curriculum.

Regardless of the method you choose to introduce your school to the program, we’re positive you’ll find that HWT is the best program for your students! For more information on piloting, adopting, or evaluating the program, contact a customer outreach coordinator at 888-983-8409 or janolsen@hwtears.com.
