Have you heard the saying, "practice makes perfect?" Well, lot's of practice may not make one perfect, but it is a guaranteed way to improve upon any skills that are being practiced! This weekly paragraph writing class provides the consistent, routine, weekly practice necessary for developing your learner's writing skills under the guidance of a licensed, experienced writing teacher. In this class learners are introduced to different types of paragraphs, such as descriptive, narrative, and persuasive. They learn how to structure a paragraph, use appropriate vocabulary and grammar, and convey their ideas effectively. 📣This class has a maximum of 7 learners so the teacher can provide extensive, specific, and individualized feedback after EVERY class to EVERY learner. 📝Your learner may choose to complete their writing on paper (take a picture and send to the teacher for feedback) OR the teacher will send a link to a Google Doc that they can write on and share for feedback.
