GBI would not suggest this course The problem is the marketing of this company encourages you to pay extra to extend the course by having your child lag behind. There is a free 7 day extension offered, but it will not be enough to finish. Although the writing process is good, the 8 week schedule puts pressure on the student to make them think they are behind. Keep in mind, regardless of the learning level, the child is not allowed to progress without receiving feedback from the teacher. With just a few days to completion, they won't be able to finish. Student course completion brings satisfaction, praise and encouragement. Unless you make a big complaint, you will pay quite a bit for a course the child never completed.

GBMy daughter completed two courses last… My daughter completed two courses last year (7-8th grade). One course during the last school term and another to study during the summer. She was very excited about her course work, teacher interaction, and feedback. Her takeaway was enhanced writing skills, and a stronger desire to express herself in writing, which has led to her writing the draft for a book. This year she is enrolling in another course for the summer. We have had an excellent experience with the Time4Writing courses and teachers. My student was ready to learn how and about writing.

DESupplemental Education Due to the pandemic, I had concerns about my daughter's academic progress. Time4Writing has been a great supplement to her education. I highly recommend it.

CAI am appalled by the way you craftily… I am appalled by the way you craftily take parents money and squeeze children into a time constraint learning experience. You do not accommodate, except for cash. Our children are not merchandize. Your business is unfortunately not a school but a club. Please refund back my money? Guerline

GBMy soon to be 5th grader just finished… My soon to be 5th grader just finished his second Time4writing course. I am so impressed with the program and the way, otherwise daunting assignments, are broken down into EASY steps. Our most recent course was Paragraph Writing. Descriptive and Narrative paragraphs come together with ease because of the simple breakdowns provided. Like all of us, we have been homeschooling through the pandemic. We have worked on writing using a variety of techniques, one of which being the writing "web" or brainstorming. The Time4Writing technique is more formulaic and very effective. Our summer plans changed a couple of times but we did not have a problem completing the course in the allotted time, so I did not find the program inflexible at all. In fact, we worked ahead a little because we were going camping and we were unsure about Wi-Fi availability. We just printed out the assignment ahead of time and worked in our notebook and then we transcribed the work when we got Wi-Fi access. The staff was so responsive and easy to work with. Thanks Time 4 Writing! I can't recommend Time4Writing enough.
