A Brave Writer's Life in Brief

Introducing: Brave Writer 101 and 102!

Explore our new “one-two” punch course series that not only guides you through the entire writing process with your child, but also enables you to stop the tears over revision, the most difficult process for kids.

This is Brave Writer’s core series. Start here!

Brave Writer 101: Guided Writing Process
Formerly called The Writer’s Jungle Online

Brave Writer 102: Stress-Free Revision
Our brand NEW class! We’re excited about this one!

These are sure to fill so if you know which session you want, SIGN UP EARLY! Fall Registration opens at noon EDT on July 27, 2020.

Our summer session sold out in record time. We’re anticipating high demand for your favorite classes this fall. Don’t wait to register—sign up when you KNOW which session you want.

We know that each student is different—that’s why we don’t offer broad, year-long classes or general programs according to grade. You can pick a class that targets EXACTLY what your child needs, right now. 

Brave Writer classes offer

• Our trademark workshop style (perfect for your child’s attention span, too!)
• Focus on one specific writing task at a time: fiction-writing, essay-writing, literary analysis, or journaling
• A writing coach who is published AND a homeschooler. No awkward questions about grade level—ha!
• Positive, kind, instructive feedback that grows the writing in a way that feels empowering to your student
• Low-risk! You’re committing to 3-6 weeks, not until next year! Who wants that!?

We have so many classes to choose from. Be sure to look through all the options and then prepare for Monday to sign up!

We get so many wonderful emails from our happy families, and even more during this stressful time. I wanted to share a quote from one to help you get a feel for how our writing program impacts families.

I think this particular season, during this unexpected pandemic, life became challenging for everyone, but I appreciated this online course at this time for our son to focus on, and I certainly appreciate his teacher taking this on and staying the course amid these added life stresses…so I offer my sincere thanks. The information and accountability and encouragement were all excellent.

Brave Writer is all about personal investment and connection. Our instructors give you a deep commitment of time and gentle instruction that leads to happy, improved writers.

Our writing classes are built from the workshop, writing support group model.

• Each participant is valued as a person, not just as a student.
• Writing feedback is detailed, friendly, and thorough.
• Our instructors recognize that they have a sacred trust with your children and they aim to ensure that each student feels heard, read, and supported in deepening both skill and insight in his or her writing.

We’re excited to get to know you and your kids this summer! Jump in!

Let’s help you launch a great summer of writing and reading with our Brave Writer online classes.

People ask me all the time which class they should take. 

Here’s the skinny:

• If you are new to Brave Writer and you want to get oriented to being your child’s writing coach, or you have a reluctant writer under 14—start with The Writer’s Jungle Online.
• If you have a high school student: start with a Movie Discussion Club for teens who hate writing. Start with Essay Prep for teens who are willing to write. 
• If you want to enroll lots of kids at once for a single price, check out our family classes. Our summer family class is Groovy Grammar Workshop.
• If you have a willing writer, look at the class descriptions with your child and let that child have a say in which class he or she takes.

All Summer Online Classes

Open for Registration – Noon Eastern on June 1

Check out the summer schedule here. Then make your plan!

• Family Classes (you pay one tuition price, and ALL your kids are enrolled in the class)
• Parent-Child Classes (where you enroll with your child to learn how to create a writing partnership)
• Student Classes (direct instruction for your child)
• New! Adult Classes (where you can exercise your awesome adulting skills)

Our classes last 3-6 weeks and do not require you to log in at a specific time of day. Participate when it is convenient for you.
