Intentional Writing

Intentional Writing utilizes adaptive, animated, game-like educational technology to help young students develop their writing and grammar skills.

Cultivating Your Child’s Writing Voice

Lafayette Academy’s goal is to nurture your children into becoming “intentional writers,” who express themselves clearly and concisely. We accomplish this by identifying and closing foundational writing gaps that prevent children from finding their writing voice and style. Intentional Writers are thoughtful writers.

Our students develop a well-rounded appreciation for the power of the pen and will experience greater confidence throughout their academic careers. You will see better writing. Period.

Our gifted tutors help children improve their writing styles, grammar skills, and vocabulary. You will see real writing improvements and noticeable growth in your child’s confidence and self-esteem.
