This class focuses on helping students confidently create response essays for prompts around short stories, articles, or quotes. These prompts are used to evaluate a student's writing skills and ability to fully answer a question in written form. It is a specialized form of writing found on standardized tests, college applications, high school classes, and college exams. Students are expected to read a prompt and understand what the question is asking, then create an essay to answer it. This class teaches your student how to do this successfully. With a focus on organization and rich development, attention will be given to all parts of an essay, including building a compelling introduction. We will walk through the writing process from brainstorming to outlining to writing, with a focus on strong thesis statements and an engaged writing voice. These skills are utilized regularly in college classes. The class is self-paced with at least one assignment per week. The teacher provides a video, written lesson material, interactive assignments, and personalized weekly feedback on every activity. Essay feedback is detailed with an overview of how the student did on their organization, development, thesis statement, use of voice, and grammar. At Write from the Heart, your voice comes first. We are all better writers when we have something to say. We teach how structure, organization, and grammar help us effectively communicate who we are and what we believe through the written word. It’s not about learning the rules. It’s about discovering how we can use the tools of writing to most clearly express ourselves. Our feedback is encouraging with suggestions for growth framed to help build the student's skills and self-confidence.

At Write from the Heart, our goal is to help students find their voices and grow in writing and critical thinking skills. Above all, we believe that education is a personal journey of discovery. It is shaped by the personality of the child, the beliefs and values of the child’s family, and the experiences that the child encounters. It should never be undervalued. We desire to come alongside parents in helping each child through that personal journey.
Write from the Heart was established in 2005 with the vision of providing students a place to work through the writing process in collaboration with peers and professional guidance. It has grown to include year-long classes, semester studies, and workshops in special topics. All of our teachers have at least a bachelor's degree in English, education, or a related field and have been teaching and writing for several decades. Our instructors include:
Veldorah Rice, who is the director of Write from the Heart, as a BA in English, History, and Communication and a MA in English and Film Studies. She oversees the classes and enjoys creating new curriculum and tools for student writers. She has worked at both the high school and collegiate level. Additionally, Veldorah enjoys speaking at homeschool and teacher conferences about writing and helping students find their voices. In her free time, she loves knitting, watching bad movies with her husband and three children, and blogging for the Write from the Heart community.
Jodi Tahsler has worked as an editor for more than twenty years, including a publishing company and as a content writer in the healthcare industry. She has a BA in English and has ghostwritten several books. She and her husband enjoy traveling and taking walks with their dogs.
Brenna Hamming has always been an avid reader and editor. She has a BA in English Literature and Language, and a MA in Gerontoligic Social Work. She has worked with a series of newsletters on grief and loss, and has also provided editing for several role-playing game publications.
