Give your child the ultimate writing experience by signing up for one of our private 50-minute instructional sessions

Whether your son or daughter wants to publish a book, or focus on specific skills, our instructors can help them take their writing to the next level.

Before the first session, your child’s coach will set up a call with you to discuss specific goals and to customize an individual plan for your child. Each 50-minute session will be conducted via Zoom Meeting or Google Hangouts and can be recorded for future reference. You will receive a write up at the end of each session from your child’s coach.
