"I love the Writing Coach. My tutoring students loved it. It doesn't give them information they should research themselves. It doesn't provide content. It DOES help them organize their writing and allows them to ask questions."

“I was really nervous because I thought maybe it would give my students advice that I didn't agree with. I have to say, it aligned really well with the rubric and was having them write the essay exactly as we wanted it to be done.”
