English Writing Classes for Kids
Stanford-Designed Program
Our 1-1 writing classes follow a systematic program designed by a Stanford MA. Kids need to make progress fast. They don’t have time for classes that repeat old information. They want a writing program that teaches them how to write better essays right away.
Based on principles used in Stanford writing classes, our writing program teaches kids how to write every kind of essay they will face in school. Your child will learn expository essays, persuasive essays, literary analysis, and personal narrative.
In school, kids writing classes often fail because they don’t teach grammar. As a result, kids write simplistic sentences and make grammatical errors. Our proprietary 1-1 tutoring program uses a systematic approach for teaching English grammar. This method helps your child write complex sentences while avoiding mistakes. That’s how our 1-1 writing classes will boost your child’s grades on essays.
In a writing class for kids, learning quickly matters. Our personalized writing classes help children make progress in just a few hours a week. Expert-designed materials are always the best way for kids to make rapid progress. Now Stanford graduates have designed a 1-1 kids writing class to help your child write better.
We have taught children exclusively for over 20 years, and our program has helped over 1200 students improve their writing. That’s why our 1-1 kids writing class will help your child improve, too. You can expect to see real progress in just a few months.
Why Strong Writing Skills Matter for Kids
English writing classes for kids are one of the most important parts of your child’s education.
First, good writing classes teach kids how to write without using electronic methods. Good writing teachers can tell when an essay has been written with Chat-GPT.
If kids write with Chat-GPT, eventually they will be caught. Their school writing class might use a Chat-GPT detector, so getting caught could mean a low grade on an essay. Or their school writing teacher might require them to write handwritten essays. Without electronic help, many kids will score worse on those assignments.
Second, good writing classes prepare kids for college level work. In college, students need to pass a writing class as a freshman. But they also need to do research, which requires good writing. Our 1-1 writing classes lay the foundation for your child’s success in college writing classes.
Third, good writing classes teach kids how to organize their ideas when they eventually get a job. This is an important quality of good leaders. Good writing leads to good thinking, which leads to good decisions. Our 1-1 writing classes give your child the edge needed in work and life.
What We Teach in Our Writing Classes for Kids
Our 1-1 English writing classes for kids focus on four main areas of improvement: Vocabulary, Grammar, Reading, and Writing.
Vocabulary is the first part of a good writing class for kids. When kids have B’s in writing, they are usually using simple vocabulary words. Their school writing class might not teach English vocabulary. Also, they probably forget vocabulary after a week. Their English class isn’t doing enough to help them remember hard words.
In each kids writing class, students learn hard vocabulary words each week. Our tutors also quiz their students regularly. This part of our writing program helps your child remember words long-term—instead of forgetting them five minutes after class.
Grammar is the second part of a good writing class for kids. In school writing classes, teachers no longer teach English grammar. So kids don’t learn subjects, verbs, or objects. They also don’t learn the parts of speech. As a result, they make grammar mistakes in their essays, hurting their grades.
In our 1-1 writing classes, kids learn grammar each lesson. Our systematic grammar program makes grammar easy. That’s why our writing classes have helped so many children raise their essay grades.
Reading is the third part of a good writing class for kids. In school English classes, teachers assign easy books. Kids no longer have to read long, complex sentences. So on their writing assignments, they have no models to follow for writing good sentences.
In our 1-1 writing classes, our students read complex books each week. Each week, they see sophisticated sentences and learn how to use them. That’s how our writing program helps your child master complex ideas and get higher grades.
Weekly writing is the fourth part of a good writing class for kids. In school writing classes, teachers assign only a few essays each semester. That’s not enough writing to improve.
In our 1-1 writing classes, students write an essay or a part of an essay each week. And each week, as part of our writing program, your child’s tutor reviews the essay. This system helps our students make rapid progress, raising their grades on school essays.
