Kelly is an excellent teacher. My son has some problems with writing. Ever since Kelly started tutoring him two years ago, he has improved a lot. She is also very flexible on what to teach each session when special needs come up. My son likes her a lot. He just finished his high school sophomore and I am so happy that I no longer have to struggle with him to complete his English writing homework. His English grade in honor class is consistently above 90. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I just wanted to say that your thoughtful Turtle unit made me cry. And looking at October… my heart! Kids are thoroughly engaged and WILLING to write. Not just eye rolling and compliant. Actually wanting to participate. THANK YOU!!- Creative ELA parent

Doing one unit study a month through Creative ELA is definitely enough to cover your language arts in a gentle but also challenging way. Can those two things go together? Yes! Because this unit study can help push your learner out of their comfort zone but in a way that helps them feel comfortable growing. – Melissa from Pocket Homeschool

My son was very reluctant, and even in the end wouldn’t use the video option. Thanks to the kind, encouraging nature of the instructor, he gained confidence and increasingly participated and provided input during class. The comprehension strategies he gained really worked; he loved using the post-it notes on the pages and interacting with the text. ★★★★★
- Outschool Parent- A Wrinkle in Time Novel Study
Teacher did great! My son is really delayed so he needs much more of these types of classes. Thanks for teaching classes like this. Very helpful. ★★★★★
- Outschool Parent- Reading Comp. Intro Class
We have sampled multiple classes on Outschool and my son liked this one the best. I also heard him participating at times which is not like him, so very positive experience! Text picked to analyze are very appropriate and also entertaining for the students. We signed up for the next session! ★★★★★

Kelly has a solid base of experience and understanding when it comes to building a solid base of skills to navigate through language arts courses. She has a kind, clear and calm demeanor that helps creates a comfortable learning space. I also value the extra time she has given to provide advice/guidance to me as a parent trying to support and at times advocate for my son’s learning needs. ★★★★★

Excellent class!! Ms. Kelly is an encouraged teacher; her class moves along with the creative path and great meaningful questions. My son (11) stay engaged in the class the whole time. We’re registering for a second class. ★★★★★
- Outschool Parent- Reading Comprehension Class
Ms. Sage goes over how to annotate, ways to take notes while reading, and more. She makes sure that everyone has a chance to participate and voice their own opinion. I believe what worked best was her letting everyone see each other’s responses. In my opinion, the students who struggle with reading strategies and writing reading response journals. ★★★★★
