Reading and Creative Writing

A Comprehensive Language Arts program designed to develop key language skills in your child:

Reading Comprehension, Structured Writing, Grammar, Language Styles.

Program designed to develop superior structured writing skills in your child in conjunction with reading comprehension and critical analysis.

Our strategy to develop your child includes the best curriculum, highly engaging classrooms with the best teachers, personalized feedback.

We celebrate the uniqueness of each child and develop them to maximize their potential.

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.

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.

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
