Dyslexia


Students who struggle with dyslexia have difficulty visualizing letters and letter patterns in the words they read and spell. This often transfers into a difficulty with grammar as well. Part of the writing process is proper usage of common grammatical punctuation marks (e.g., periods, commas, etc...) that make written works easier to understand for the reader.

WritingKey™ assists with this difficulty by creating visual cues that allow students to more easily edit their written work for grammatical errors. Rather than having to rely on internal cues, students can use the visual cues provided by the WritingKey™ process to assist them with proper placement of grammatical punctuation marks.

ADD/ADHD


Students who struggle with attention often find it difficult to write. When students who fit this profile attempt to write, they can struggle to come up with what it is they want to say, as their minds can jump from idea to idea. When students say, "I don't know what to write," what they're really saying is that they cannot focus on a single idea long enough to get it down on paper. The WritingKey™ program takes the writing process and

The WritingKey™ lessons are also well-suited for students who struggle with attention difficulties, as they are short and to the point. With the longest lesson being just over ten minutes long, students do not have to sit though unnecessarily long instruction. With longer periods of instruction, their attention inevitably drifts elsewhere, and they miss out on key information about the writing process as a whole.




Executive Functioning


Students who struggle with Executive Functioning absolutely need longer tasks to be broken down into short, manageable steps. When students with this profile try to take on writing assignments, they can become lost in the seemingly endless details. Too often the result is a student sitting in front of a blank piece of paper or computer screen saying something along the lines of, "I don't know where to start!"

WritingKey™ takes the writing process and breaks it down into short, manageable steps that any student can understand and any student can do. Each short task takes students one step closer to completing the overall writing assignment, an otherwise seemingly impossible task.

Language Comprehension


Difficulty with language comprehension is a learning difference that often goes undiagnosed. Parents and teachers often see students with this profile as simply “not paying attention,” or “not listening.” However, difficulty with oral and/or written language comprehension can seriously impede a student’s ability to understand what is required in order to complete assignments involving writing. This is true for not only specific instructions for any given assignment, but it is also the case for the actual instruction on how to write at all. 

WritingKey™ is perfect for students who struggle with language comprehension. First, Andrew has extensive experience working with students with this learning profile. The language he uses is clear and easy to understand for any learner. In addition, students will gain lifetime access to the WritingKey™ program, allowing them to watch, and rewatch videos as many times as they need in order to fully comprehend the content. If they have trouble remembering something from a specific video, they can easily navigate to that spot and quickly be able to move forward with their writing.
