Overview

This chapter is meant to present the experience of the author teaching through a global pandemic just as the author was entering the field. This chapter presents the unique perspective of leaving a religious cult and the hope found through writing about it. Presented are the ways in which experiences both professionally and personally are translated to students in the classroom setting. Theories on teaching writing are presented and referenced by the works of Peter Elbow, Thomas Newkirk, Dawn Skorczewski, Muriel Harris, and Tony Silva. Writing is presented as a vehicle for hope and healing for students as they have faced a unique and transformative experience.
