| Educational Workshops by Tuck Wilson Songwriter / Entertainer |
| These performance-based workshops bring history and literature to life for your students using historically significant folk songs. They can be followed by student-participation workshops in songwriting to provide a memorable educational experience for your class or school. |
| Current Workshops: |
| The songwriting workshop is an excellent program for English classes working on writing skills. Students frequently find song lyrics less intimidating than other forms of poetry, and a melody improves their ability to hear the meter and enhances their rhyming creativity. For younger students, Tuck acts as facilitator while the class writes a song as a group project. Older students may write or bring a song of their own, and Tuck will select several to use in a discussion of approaches to songwriting, while demonstrating first-hand the craft of songwriting. |
| In each workshop, Tuck performs a variety of songs, explaining the historical background and significance of each, or using the songs as examples to explain the craft of songwriting. |
| Call or e-mail to learn about scheduling a workshop. |
Tuck has been performing in coffeehouses, college campuses, and concert halls since he was in high school. |
