My Writing Coach offers both the structure students need and the flexibility that busy families require.

Our Services:

Evaluation & Assessment  NOW AVAILABLE.

no contracts, no ongoing commitment; just submit your writing assignments as needed for professional review and instruction

My Writing Coach evaluates submitted essays and reports based on the standard Six Traits of Writing assessment. Student will receive a detailed assessment of his or her work with practical suggestions for improvement.

Here’s what we do not do: we do not offer complete proofreading and editing of your papers.* This does not teach a student how to write. Instead we identify areas that need work and coach the student in ways to improve his or her writing and to make necessary corrections.  We are available to provide whatever instruction or assistance the students need; however, our goal is to guide students through the writing process, not do the work for them.

Why use My Writing Coach Online to evaluate my child’s papers? Writing can be a difficult subject to evaluate. There isn’t an answer key to use. Sure, you can objectively assess whether a word is spelled correctly or a comma is in the right place, but it’s difficult to objectively assess style, structure, word choice… especially when it’s your child doing the writing. Some parents are not confident in their own writing skills and are uncomfortable teaching the subject. [kind of like me teaching math to my kids…it’s not a good idea.] Having an objective third-part resource to review your child’s writing will make your life easier, as well as give you confidence in knowing your child is receiving quality instruction and assessment.

We can help with any writing project from short stories to essays to research papers. My Writing Coach is available any time, any day of the week, with a quick turn-around time. Email your project to us in the middle of the night, if that’s when you’re up working on it!

How does it work? Fill out our online form, submit your payment, and email your report, essay or other writing via email. We prefer a .doc attachment. Mrs. Deb will print your paper, evaluate it within 24 or 72 hours, depending on the service selected, and email you back a scanned PDF file of your paper with detailed notes and a Six Traits rubric for your review. If you select our three-draft service, then you will make corrections based on the notes and return your paper for continued evaluation. For three-draft coaching, we start with the big picture and work down to the details of punctuation and spelling.

*non-academic proofreading and editing is available for adult writers seeking publication.
If parents are interested in grading services without coaching, please ask for details..
