Remedial Instruction

There is no finer program for remedial writing instruction than Write Well, Write Now.   Our program is ideal for any high school student who can use a computer and who reads at least at the 3rd grade reading level.

Scaffolded Instruction
  Students begin learning at their instructional level – no lower, and no higher.  All instruction is provided in tiny "slices" to ensure that students master a concept before moving on.

We do not waste student time, however.   Once a student can demonstrate a concept in his or her writing, we expect them to continue to demonstrate their proficiency and move on!   Should a student become lax or forget a concept, we will go back and support and reinforce it until they have achieved true mastery.
 
Private
  Students can work at their own pace without embarrassment.   Each student is paired one-on-one with a credentialed mentor teacher who understands their learning needs.   When we remove the "embarrassment factor" we find that students are free to make rapid progress forward!
 
High Expectations
  There are gifts in every child.   We have high expectations of our students.   We at Write Well, Write Now firmly believe that we can meet each child's needs, build a rational for learning, create a sense of urgency and excitement, and then we support, support, support our students as they learn and grow.
 
Effective
  Our students make progress because they work through multiple channels to master their learning tasks:   They read, write, reflect, are critiqued, then revise their work over and over until they master their topics.   Your students are assigned lessons on that week's learning concept, read the colorful lessons, and take practice quizzes as many times as they need to pass the quiz (80% is passing at Write Well, Write Now).

Each week, we expect our students to apply their learning from the previous weeks' work into their current writing products.   By having high expectations, a solid learning program, one-on-one coaching, and a way to track student progress across time, we've developed a program that does what it sets out to do:   It teaches your students how to write!
