Hi, I’m Sammy Taylor.
I’m a primary school teacher, literacy coach and mum of four amazing VCOP kids. I am also the proud owner of Andrell Education Australasia, where I run training on Big Write, Big Talk and VCOP.
I am a passionate educator, but I found teaching writing difficult. I just felt I didn’t have all the tools I needed to make it as successful as it could be for my students. I was better at teaching Math, Science and PE. I knew I could do better and wanted only the best for the students in my care.
Skip to my year abroad teaching in the UK, where I fell in love with a concept called VCOP that would change my life (and many of my student’s lives as well). 15 years later, I still have to pinch myself. I can’t believe I can make writing so much fun for both the students and myself. So, I want to share my passion and resources with you.
Don’t be a stranger. Reach out if you need anything, and don’t forget to tag me in your socials when you are enjoying teaching writing or using my resources in your own classroom. Thank you for visiting my website. Together, we can raise the standards of literacy across the world and have fun in the process.
Happy VCOP-ing
