Homeschool Students - Many homeschool parents want to outsource writing instruction since they find it difficult to teach. In many families, the critical and subjective feedback that students need to become solid writers is better handled by experienced writing instructors.

Students in School - Many families feel that their children are not receiving the personalized feedback they need on their writing or given enough opportunity to develop their writing and critical thinking skills. We provide invaluable extra-instruction and practice.

Students Facing High Stakes Tests with Essay Writing Requirements - The essay has become an integral part of standardized testing programs (FCAT, SAT, ACT) as well as an important component in the all-too-stressful college application process. Time4Writing prepares students for these upcoming challenges.

Our grade school courses are only for children, but we also offer a blogging course for adults called Blogging101 that will teach you how to write an engaging blog that will keep your readers coming back for more.

Leslie earned a Bachelor of Education degree cum laude from The University of Miami with a specialization in secondary speech and drama and middle school English. Her career began with ten years in the Miami-Dade Public Schools teaching in the classroom and working as a department chair. Following the birth of her daughter, Vogel returned to the classroom as a substitute teacher for two years.

In 1997, she chose another career path when she began to work for The Miami Herald and then South Florida Sun-Sentinel writing many education-based and human interest stories.

The education field once again called when, in 2004, Vogel began to write and edit curriculum for an online education publishing company.

She is now working with Time4Learning to assist in the development of their writing programs.

Kim has been teaching for the past eight years at an International Baccalaureate high school and for the past four years at a cyber charter school.  While all genres of literature fascinate her, studying and teaching the novel have always been her first love.  With a background in drama, as well, Kim also enjoys being as creative as possible in all facets of her teaching.  Kim enjoys helping teenagers foster a confidence in their writing and she periodically scores standardized tests for Pearson.

Jessica obtained her M.S.Ed. from Duquesne University in a record 11 months and took her first job teaching 9th grade English at a large school in Delaware.  The following year, she “looped” with her passing 9th graders and taught 10th grade.  The majority of Governor’s School honoree’s came from her class.  Their writing was stellar.  Students who were serious about writing began requesting independent study courses with Jessica so they could learn how to improve and get their writing published.

Many years later, she is a stay-at-home/work-at-home Mom to two lovely little girls who made me give up the brick and mortar school for a less conventional way of teaching writing, Time4Writing.
