English Fundamentals - Grades 9 & 10

$325.00

Give your teen the tools they need to read deeply, write clearly, and communicate confidently, without the overwhelm.

In this engaging, hands-on English Foundations class, students will strengthen grammar, spelling, and writing skills while exploring meaningful, wholesome literature that builds character and critical thinking.

Each week blends:

  • Practical grammar & sentence-building

  • Phonograms & spelling patterns (great for struggling or dyslexic learners)

  • Morphemes (prefixes, suffixes, roots) to unlock vocabulary

  • Guided literature discussions (themes, character, worldview)

  • Real-life writing (emails, essays, reflections, creative writing)

This is not a dry lecture-style class. Students will interact, discuss, edit, create, and apply what they learn in ways that stick.

Perfect for:

  • Students who need stronger foundations

  • Reluctant writers or readers

  • Homeschool families wanting structured English support

  • Teens preparing for upper high school and beyond

Students leave this class more confident, capable, and equipped for life, not just school.
