Beyond the Standard Curriculum

Most students are taught how to write a basic paper with an introduction, three body paragraphs and a conclusion. However, most high schools don’t offer specific instruction dedicated to more sophisticated elements of writing. This is where writing coaching with Your Best Essay arrives to elevate your student's written expression to the next level.

From conceiving of a great angle on a prompt, how to ascertain what quotations from the source material will best support your point of view, and how to lay out the structure of your essay, Nicole will give your student tools they can use throughout their schooling and into their careers. Students learn to embrace the concept of an initial brain dump or "vomit draft" and when to put on their editing hats to improve word choice and syntax.

Support at Every Step

Nicole provides side-by-side support for your student every single step of the way. Gone is the red pen! Her role is not as editor, but rather co-conspirator in planning, researching, drafting, writing, editing and submitting final essays. Ultimately, your student will grow comfortable with and facile within their own writing process.
