Writing With Ease

Learning to become a writer is a process much like learning to play the piano or learning to draw. The more you practice different strategies, the better you become at the overall task. Using direct writing prompts, journaling, hands-on writing activities, and modeling, this class will help students to become independent writers as they explore the writing process in a positive and affirming learning environment.

Comments from Parents of Writing Class Students
"My girls were very reluctant to take a writing class, but Theresa made it fun for them. They really enjoyed it and at the end of the course actually told me to 'beg her to do another class' ".
Karen Hackmeister - Home School Mom

"Theresa's class brought a depth to writing instruction that I could not provide in a home school environment. Theresa's positive approach to teaching was a blessing to my son who struggles with writing. Every week he really looked forward to the class."
Lori Agostinelli - Home School Mom
