Online Writing Courses

Since I wrote my post on Writing Skills for Homeschoolers, I've had numerous emails asking if I offer on-line writing courses in addition to the writing courses I teach for homeschoolers in the Los Angeles area.  I'm currently working on ideas for creating a variety of online classes targeting different age groups, but in the meantime am starting an on-line consulting service to help parents interested in having their child's writing professionally evaluated.  I will provide specific feedback designed to help your child improve in many areas, including:  structure and organization, unity and coherence, content, grammar and syntax and overall argumentative effectiveness.  Using the "review" function in MS Word, I'll insert comments and suggestions and return the the writing sample to you with a complete evaluation and recommendations for areas that need further study.

I have over a decade of experience teaching freshman writing at local universities, such as the University of Southern California (USC), Pepperdine University, California State University Northridge (CSUN) and California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) and have been teaching writing to homeschoolers for the last three years at the Huckleberry Learning Center, located just north of Los Angeles.

My rates are listed below on a "price per essay" basis and all include a 2-part review.  Revision is essential to strong writing, so each essay evaluation will include follow-up comments if the student wishes to revise an essay and re-submit for further comments within 2 weeks of the original evaluation.
