In a period of three months, Mara's inspiration and facilitation has transformed me from someone who "used to write" to a published poet.
-Susan Fredette

Mara inspires and encourages as a teacher, letting me find my natural voice in my writing.
-Patricia Robin Woodruff 

I've really appreciated Mara's agility. Sometimes we talk about grammar and punctuation, other times our focus is on this connotative value of words or the tactile qualities for the mouth of speaking a particular string of plosives aloud.
-Molly Phemister

Having taught Creative Writing for 11 years at a local community college, I can say without reservation that Mara Robbins was not only one of the best students I’ve ever had, but also one of the best teachers. As with any class, I inevitably learn more from my students than they learn from me. With Mara Robbins participating, I learned far more than usual. Throughout the year in which she was enrolled in two of my courses, she was open to exploring new ideas, and offered incredibly helpful and insightful support to students of all levels. Learning from Mara is a journey, a joy, an exploration into the known and the unknown. Take the journey. It’s worth the ride!
