TESTIMONIAL
Amanda has been taking this online course for the past 20 months. I find the tips and feedback extremely helpful. She used to dread writing compositions. The course has transformed her into a confident and creative writer. She really enjoys writing now! Her EL teacher has been showing her compositions as model examples to her class and that further boosts her confidence in writing. Thank you!
~ Parent of Amanda Foo (A* for PSLE English)

The Writing Academy is an online course that is suitable for students who want to learn how to write the current PSLE format compositions.
It is recommended for students from Primary 4 onwards, who are writing the current PSLE format compositions in school.

he or she can join the Junior Writing Academy HERE.
Once you are enrolled, you will have instant access to the first month of video lessons and assignments (total of 4 lessons), including during the free trial period. You will only be charged after the free trial ends, that is if you wish to continue with the course. Thereafter, the monthly subscription fee will be billed automatically on the same day every month together with the release of a new set of four brand new video lessons and assignments.
Students can complete one lesson per week or four lessons per month or anything in between.
