We recommend starting with the Writing Symphony Grade Level Courses, as they form the foundation of our methodology.
For students new to Writing Symphony, we suggest enrolling based on their current grade level:
Writing Symphony switched to 100% virtual classes at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Online classes allow us to hire the best instructors nationwide and provide flexible access for students around the world. Additionally, virtual classrooms facilitate Real-Time Editing, allowing teachers to give immediate, valuable feedback on student submissions.
As virtual learning continues to grow, students at Writing Symphony gain a competitive edge by developing strong communication and presentation skills. Our online platform allows students to engage in learning from anywhere. Additionally, they learn to effectively use modern technology, enhancing their digital literacy and preparing them for future academic and professional environments.
What sets us apart is our step-by-step approach, based on the Institute for Excellence in Writing methodology, which teaches skills often not covered in traditional English Language Arts classes. Our balanced literacy approach ensures that students grow in listening, reading, and speaking, while gaining confidence in writing.
Our process is practice-based, helping students gradually master advanced writing techniques. Our public speaking program, based on the Olson Method, boosts confidence and presentation skills through proven strategies.
In the event of a teacher emergency, we may replace a live class with a recorded lesson covering all key objectives. If your student misses a class, a recording can be provided.
Homework varies by class, but generally, students can expect weekly assignments that take around 15-20 minutes per day to complete. For writing classes, this typically includes a writing assignment and a grammar worksheet.
To be fully prepared for each class, please ensure your student has the following:
Each Writing Symphony class is capped at 4 students per teacher. We believe that small class sizes maximize learning outcomes and personalize your child’s learning experience.
While we do not offer 1-on-1 tutoring, we do occasionally have classes with a single student. In these cases, the class will be run for 50 minutes instead of the usual hour. Private tutoring is not available at this time.
Yes, Writing Symphony offers installment payment options. These can be managed directly through our registration platform, Amilia.
Our Academic Calendar provides details about the specific class dates. If you have any questions, please contact the Support Team at support@writingsymphony.com.
