About Our Sponsor
Fortuigence was founded by Lily Iatridis, a former classroom teacher who decided she wanted to take a different path to teaching. As a classroom teacher, she was very frustrated with not being able to give the kids the one on one attention that they so desperately needed. She hated it when she had to give a lower grade to a student who was very capable of doing a great job, but only needed a little more one on one time with the teacher. Because of that experience, Fortuigence was formed. (If you’d like to read even more about Lily and Fortuigence, be sure to visit the About Page on their website.)
About the Essay Rock Star Course
The Essay Rock Star course is a high school level course that your middle and high school aged children can take online. There are assignments and videos that the child works through. They submit their assignment to an actual teacher through the online portal each time they complete a section. The teacher then gives them feedback, tells them what they need to correct or improve and they correspond until the child gets it right. What this does, is gives you, the homeschool mom, a neutral teacher to help you teach your older children how to write essays and how to write them well! Sometimes, it’s relieving to take the teaching of one subject off of your plate! Students who have experienced the course, have gained confidence in their writing skills, learned how to think through the critical steps of writing a non fiction piece, like an essay; and they no longer fear those writing assignments!

My child’s weakest point is definitely content. Its difficult for my child to know what to put down, especially when its a subject that he doesn’t care about.
