Learning to write can feel overwhelming.
With so many grammar guidelines, writing techniques, formatting rules, and composition styles, it’s no wonder homeschoolers (both parents and students) can feel frustrated and discouraged.
You could brush up on your grammar, study punctuation rules, and research different kinds of essays so you can teach composition to your child. However, the to-do list that keeps your family rolling probably doesn’t leave you much time or energy to edit papers, dive into citation styles, and give your student everything they need for high school and college writing.
We can help.
Writing Foundations makes learning to write simple.
Convenient Format
Our core classes are held live online (not pre-recorded) so you get the convenience of active learning (without driving anywhere!) and the support of a real-life teacher.
Complete Curriculum
We cover everything! From the writing process to grammar rules, to sentence structure and vocabulary, we’re the only language arts curriculum you’ll need.
Full-Service Support
You don’t have to worry about teaching, handouts, assignments, editing, scoring, or record-keeping. We handle all of it for you!
What if writing class could be fun?
We love to encourage kids and make them laugh, so when it comes to a potentially difficult subject like writing, we fill our classes with silly stories, crazy hats, and fun writing games. Our students don’t even realize they’re doing hard things and look forward to writing class each week!
Whether your student easily pours their heart onto the page or diligently avoids paragraphs like the plague, it’s our personal mission to help them overcome their writing woes and have fun in the process!

The Head Honcho
I’ve always loved writing. As a child, I was “the eighteen-page girl” with the wild imagination who composed stories that never ended.
After graduating with an English degree, I dove into the world of teaching. Driven by my desire to take the mystery and misery out of learning to write, I developed the Writing Foundations curriculum.
Over the past twenty years, I’ve helped thousands of students become confident writers while raising and homeschooling my three children. Now that my kids are grown, I love working alongside homeschooling parents to help equip their students with the writing skills they need to succeed!

Editor Extraordinaire
My writing career began as a four year old. As I sat in my mother’s class, I wrote a story about “the horrible king who abominated everyone.” Thus began my glorious ascent into the world of English and love of college-level vocabulary.
By the time I turned eighteen, I took charge of the editing and behind the scenes scoring and grading tasks for Writing Foundations. Now, I am passionate about helping our students develop their unique writing styles and become confident writers!
