The Write Offs Australia (Lost For Words)

Nine brave everyday Australians start a life changing journey by taking part in an uplifting adult literacy and numeracy program. Their first lesson involves writing a little bit about themselves, but for many of them it's a daunting exercise as they haven't put pen to paper in years. They also set themselves a goal; what they hope to achieve from the program over the next nine weeks.

It's the midway point of the nine week intensive adult literacy and numeracy course and the students are at different stages in their learning journeys. Some are making excellent progress, whilst others are grappling with old beliefs that still have a strong hold. The one-on-one sessions continue to target their individual needs but we shake up the classes with guest teacher Eddie Woo.

After 7 intensive weeks of learning, only two weeks remain of this year's adult literacy and numeracy program. Throughout the final classes, teachers assist the students in their individual learning and push them closer to achieving their goals. The adult learner's confidence continues to build during a fun offsite trivia class run by host Jay Laga'aia.
