January Writing Classes with Hannah Yeager





Hello everyone! 

It is that time of year again, where I send my email about classes and workshops that I will be offering this coming year. Also, it is the holiday season so Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all! 

I am sending this email to let you know about the January  writing classes.

I have a new class that will be offered starting this January, Writing Workshop 301, that is the next level of academic writing. It also goes into writing for all different outlets and in most career fields. I want to give students a taste of what it means to write for a business, magazine, newspaper, scientific journal, or a technical writing project. 

I will be teaching classes from January 8th – January 19th.

I have a list of classes/ workshops and dates listed below. I will be accepting email signups as of right now and I now accept charter money. You can sign up using charter money through Yeager Educational Services.

I also offer online tutoring in writing and literature.  The price  per hour is $25 non-charter and $30 charter.
This is a basic tutoring session.  Here I can do two thing: (a) Go over lessons that the student is learning in their homeschool program (b) Tailor lessons to help a student grow in the basics of writing.  It is up to the parent which one the student does.

Thank you all for continuing to be interested in my classes and have a good holiday season! I hope to hear from you all in the coming year.
