Disclosure: My son was allowed to try out this course for free and I was compensated for my time in writing this review.  All statements from the following review are completely and 100% my honest opinions.  

Essay Rock Star

You would think, as a blogger, that I would be a confident teacher when it comes to teaching writing to my kids.  I am not!  I know how to do what I do, but I may not use grammar correctly; I may not punctuate correctly; and sometimes I may use a run on sentence.  Yeah, I’m definitely guilty of that!  All of my awesome readers are very forgiving of mistakes that I make.  Potential employers and colleges for my kids are not!  That’s why, when I first heard about Fortuigence‘s Essay Rock Star Writing Course, I was super excited to sign my 10th grade son up!  Not only would my son get some much-needed help in writing, but I would have the help I need to guide him to be the best writer that he can be!

Improve Your Writing Skills

By using the Essay Rock Star Writing Course, my son was able to dramatically improve his writing skills.  He was not at all confident at the beginning of the course, asking  me lots of questions as we went along.  But, as time went on, he rarely asked me anything.  I’d have to ask him or log into the platform to see if he had completed his assigments.  The longer he was in the program, I was pleasantly surprised by the amazing results that I was finding!

What is Fortuigence & The Essay Rock Star Writing Course?

Fortuigence was founded by Lily Iatridis.  Equipped with a Bachelor’s degree, 2 Master’s degrees and many years’ experience teaching children in a classroom setting, Lily has the skills needed to educate our children.  Here’s a little more about Fortuigence from their website and in her own words:

Fortuigence is an online school created to support parents and fill the gaps in teenagers’ education. We make sure teens have the skills they need to succeed when they graduate from high school.  The first major gap we’ve identified is in writing ability, so our initial courses and programs are focused on the skills needed to make strong writers out of every teenager who takes our classes.

Why We Love This Online Writing Course

  • Ease of Use – This course is so easy to use!  They provide you with your login information and then you can get started right away.  Each lesson begins with a video or audio where she explains what you’re supposed to do, followed by some written instruction and tips about the assigmment .  The whole assignment is broken down into steps.  As you complete each step, Lily, the teacher, lets you know how you did and if you can proceed or not.
  • Encouraging Teacher – Each communication that Lily (a.k.a Mrs. I.) sent to my son was always so very encouraging.  She never made him feel dumb, but always helped him to build his confidence in writing with her encouraging words of instruction.  She has a gift for  teaching children!
  • Helpful Hints & Tips – Each time she communicated with my son, she would give useful tips to help him improve his essay, if needed.   It was always just enough information to guide him in the needed direction, so that he could complete the assignment as instructed.
  • Quick Response – After my son would submit his next step for feedback from the teacher, she always responded in a timely manner.  We were always impressed with how quickly she got back to us.

 

What My Student Thought

When I asked my son what he thought of the course, he admitted that he wasn’t very excited about this assignment when he first found out about it.  He’s always despised any kind of writing.  But, he continued to say that he feels that the course helped him to be a more confident writer.  He went from hesitant writer to confident writer in two essay assignments.  To say that makes me very happy is an understatement!

    Thank you so much! As a special needs mommy these recipes have helped us so much.   I often am very busy with being a nurse for our child that I don't have time for making sure we get meals.  This allows me to do all my prep on the weekends, while my husband is home to help, and to cook during the week.  So grateful!

  • Linda SearsOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Menus

    Sarah’s Freezer to Slow Cooker ebooks have been a fantastic addition to my meal plans.  They make meal planning easy and my family happy. I love the way each recipe is laid out, with a shopping list and ingredient prep list, along with cooking instructions. Sarah’s done all the hard work for me!  The recipes have used have all been delicious and easily adaptable to my family’s taste and the number of people I’m serving.

  • FranOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebooks
     I purchased all of your freezer to slow cooker ebooks a month or so ago and I'm in love with this way of cooking.  I now have taken all 10 weeks of recipes and written them of my menu planner and then I repeated the 10 weeks and will continue to do so throughout the year.  My family of 5 adults and 1 child enjoy the meals that you have planned and I have cooked and I'm excited that the next time when that meal comes due up in the rotation I won't have to purchase anything but just pull it from the freezer.  Thank you so much

    This makes my life so much easier. I'm a busy work at home/stay at home mom, wife, business woman and I feel like dinner is always the thing I just never get time to do. We have done like 15 of the crockpot recipes from Sarah and they are all very yummy. They get a thumbs up from my husband and kids every time. And there is always enough for my husband to take the left overs at least 2x per recipe. I have a family of 5, 2 adults, 21, 13, 16. So it makes plenty. Thank you Sarah.

    I am a 59-year-old wife and mother of two grown children.  I love your idea of fixing a lot of meals ahead of time and then pulling one out, put it in the crockpot, and you have dinner when you get home.  I hate feeling rushed when I cook so Monday - Friday I use those crockpot meals and make enough that we have lunch the next day.  I take Sunday afternoon, fix up what I need for the week (I don't have a lot of freezer space so I do a week's worth at a time) and I'm done with it!  Saturdays I like to try new recipes from some of my cookbooks which I am finding I can freeze as well!  So you have shown me a whole new way to organize my time and still put a healthy meal on the table.  Thanks so much and I look forward to future blogs.
