The class formerly known as "Overcome Anxiety about Writing!" In this course, students learn specific and powerful strategies for approaching writing in a more productive way so that they can write successfully and with more ease. They also practice these strategies in a supported environment to solidify them and see immediate improvement in their writing skills while completing their school work. As students progress through middle school and into high school, they are asked to write increasingly longer and more complicated pieces using more complex logic. At the same time, they are moving through early adolescence, a time of many physical, mental, emotional, and social changes. These changes are accompanied by shifts in how they perceive themselves, and often worries about how others perceive them. During this time, students are not only learning difficult academic skills, they're learning to develop their voice. Each time they produce and submit a piece of writing for a grade, their own expression of knowledge and feeling is being evaluated. It is an experience that is understandably intimidating, and for some students can become quite distressing. But, all learners can think and feel differently about writing, and in this course, they'll get the tools to do just that. They'll learn basic neuroscience behind writing anxiety, so that they understand where their anxious feelings are coming from and how to keep them from ruling the coop. Then they'll develop specific strategies for approaching writing in a more productive way and practice those strategies in class so they will be ready to use them when the school year starts again. Both the content and the structure of this course will provide lots of opportunity to have fun while writing at their own level in a relaxed, supportive setting, so your learner can start to build positive associations with the subject and start to overcome their nerves. And, you'll receive detailed reporting throughout the class, so that you always know exactly how your learner is growing. Syllabus Day 1: Identify How Math is Going for You Now and How You Want It to Go Instead Day 2: Understand How Anxious Feelings about Writing are Created by the Brain Day 3: Create Positive Writing Experiences with MadLibs Day 4: Develop a Personal Strategy Toolkit Day 5: Practice Strategies while Writing at Your Own Level

I'm a Harvard-trained, certified teacher and the Founder of School Without Suffering. Over my decade-long education career, I’ve honed an empathetic, neuroscience-based approach to instruction and academic coaching that works. I founded School Without Suffering and began teaching with Outschool so that I could implement my approach with students around the world, because I believe that when students have the tools and supports that they need, they thrive.
My mission is to provide life-long tools that learners can use to take control over their external and internal stressors, increase their self-efficacy, and fully realize their unique potential. I expertly design and deliver my classes to meet students where they are and help them get where they want to go, and I always provide detailed reporting so that you know exactly where your learner is along their journey. Each time your learner enters our virtual classroom, you'll know that they are deeply learning transferable skills and mindsets that will help set them up for success in their current and future endeavors.
In addition to small group instruction on Outschool, I offer individual academic tutoring and coaching to meet the unique needs of each of my students. If you think your learner could benefit from individual support, please don't hesitate to reach out.
