Writing & Entrepreneurship
Creative Writing Lab
Grades 3 - 5
Stock Investing & Entrepreneurship
Grades 3 - 5
Creative Writing Lab

Creative writing is one of the most important skills with benefits in all walks of life. And we feel this is a skill that has seen the most dearth of attention in the school systems.
In our self-paced Creative Writing Lab, your child will learn to craft vivid, engaging narratives through step-by-step guidance and personalized feedback. Students will have access to instructional videos, guidance materials, planning documents that will allow them to plan, visualize, and create fantastic lively narratives. Students will submit weekly assignments and receive weekly feedback through our online platform.
Our program will coach your child on structuring their thoughts into carefully planned narratives, using superior language styles that make the simplest of scenes come alive. Watch as they grow from writing simple sentences to crafting captivating, descriptive narratives.
There are plenty of neuroscience research suggesting that when students engage in creative writing, it activates the same cognitive abilities tied to invention and problem solving. It also increases their patience and persistence in driving towards long term goals vs driving towards immediate gratification.
These competencies will be strong differentiators in a fast changing world where your kids will have to be problem solvers in scenarios where the problem itself may not be clearly defined. Our program is designed to build their ongoing confidence and develop them into superior thinkers and problem solvers.
Your child will develop vivid and masterful writing skills.
