We meticulously recruit and vet renowned writing professors with proven track records in teaching, then further train them in our specialized secondary-school curriculum, ensuring a superior learning experience and reliable outcomes.
We believe in our students, so we set exceptionally high standards. We encourage students to test their limits and to push beyond their own expectations. By providing them with continuous support and guidance, we mentor them as they grow into confident, independent writers and thinkers.
We provide personal attention to each student, maintaining small class sizes (no larger than ten students) and offering frequent, thorough feedback to both students and their parents. This approach ensures individualized support and fosters significant improvement in students' writing skills.
Our curriculum is adapted and refined from university-level materials and tailored to specific age groups. Our pedagogy prioritizes sophistication and precision in both thought and expression, ensuring that students practice models for clear thinking while acquiring concrete writing skills.
Our students are expected to integrate knowledge and methods across different subjects and disciplines, allowing them to draw connections and synthesize ideas across areas of study. This interdisciplinary approach creates an expansive learning environment that lays the foundation for critical thinking and analysis.
