IEW Grading Services
Homeschooling parents are busy! Sometimes having someone else provide feedback on your student’s work is helpful! I can provide feedback on an occasional paper (see Editing Services), or I can contract for a semester of an IEW class. My comments include feedback on the structure of the assignment, the style required, and grammar. This provides the best of both worlds. You control the pace of assignments. I provide feedback as papers are submitted. I do not provide a schedule, keep track of grades, or issue a report card. You remain in control of those.

OPTION 1
Students need to make use of their at-home editor. I will grade the final draft with no resubmissions. This means someone at home needs to review the student’s work with the checklist to confirm that all the requirements were met and that basic grammar and spelling and punctuation have been corrected.
I do encourage students to submit their KWO before submitting the assignment. This allows me to provide feedback before they invest time in writing.
Students will not submit a rough draft or revisions after my grading. You can opt to have your student make corrections per my feedback, and then you offer them an adjusted grade.
OPTION 2
A second option is to have me do the first check of the paper, you have your student make corrections, and then I grade the final submission, essentially looking at each paper twice.

I have taught three of the Structure and Style for Students (SSS) courses online and have been through all of the courses.
Sometimes students miss concepts taught during the video. My helpful tips in each assignment in IEW Gradebook remind students what to focus on for the structure and style in their assignment.
