Writing Across the Curriculum
This natural writing approach not only produces superior writers, but eclectic thinkers; students who think beyond the obvious.
Our Unique Teaching Method
Multisensory
Our classes are multisensory, which helps learners retain and acquire basic skills. Although most of our classes are online, we employ all five senses when teaching our writing and thinking skills. A multisensory approach makes learning fun and memorable.
All learners, especially struggling students, gravitate to natural multisensory methods
Individualized
We consider a student’s learning style. We consider the best way an individual acquires and retains information. We do not teach writing in a cookie-cutter way. Instead, writers are taught how to maximize their own unique talents in the writing process.
We are especially adept at helping struggling and reluctant writers find their muse.
Evidence-Based
All our courses are evidence-based. Educational methods continue to evolve and relevant research should always be considered when working with different types of learners.
All our courses are constantly evolving to embrace relevant research while holding to time honored classical approaches to proven writing instruction approaches.

Here's what parents saying about collegiate learning...
-
The teachers are tough, but fair and know how to motivate even the most reluctant writers. My kids were always given such thoughtful and interesting projects to work on according to their interests. I recommend The Capable Scholar because they know how to inspire students to want to learn.
— Homeschool Parent -
The professors are funny, without even trying, and make you want to do your best. I learned so much in such a short time. They really make everything so understandable. I still use what I learned in my college classes.
— Former Student -
My daughter took a summer writing class and loved it…She used to hate school but was so excited about school starting again just to use the study tips she learned. She approached the school year much more confidently.
