OC Scribes is pleased to announce Summer Scribes for Teens! This is an online summer writing program designed specifically for middle/high school students. Over the course of 6 weeks, students will learn to do what teachers, colleges, and test-scorers want to see.

Here is an overview:

Monday: Students receive a writing prompt via email. This writing prompt is modeled after the SAT writing prompts.

Thursday: Students send their completed essay (1 ½ to 2 pages) and send them back to me via email.

Saturday: Students receive their graded essay via email. This essay will be full of digital comments and suggestions for improvement. Their score and feedback is based on the SAT 6-point rubric.
Optional: Students may choose to add the option of a review meeting. This is a 30-minute meeting with the instructor.

The individual feedback to writing is vital to improvement. Think of it like a sport: A student cannot learn how to throw a strike by reading about it, listening to a coach talk about it, or even watching a professional do it! They must get out on the mound and throw the ball. Then the coach can advise them on their posture, their footing, and their release. Writing is the same. Teachers can lecture about sentence structure and comma rules, but students will best understand the concepts when they see it in their own writing.

The program runs from July 9, 2013 to August 17, 2013.
The fee for the 6-week program is just $150.
The optional Review Meetings are an additional $25 each (up to $75).
