From the Magic Pencil: Voices of Writing Through

S2 Ep8: Express Yourself (w/ Andrea McKenna Brankin)

Writing Through Season 2 Episode 8

In this week’s episode, Kristin sits down with Andrea McKenna Brankin, a multitalented writer-journalist and long-time Writing Through facilitator based in Singapore. As someone who has always expressed herself creatively through words, fashion, and tattoos, Andrea now works to teach students to do the same, be it in poetry workshops, rugby matches, or yoga sessions. They discuss the difference in rigid and creative teaching styles and their effect on students’ learning, writing about her experiences with bipolar disorder and the destigmatization of mental health, and dealing with imposter syndrome.
