Does your child need extra support in writing? Does your child love to write and want to continue to write under guidance? A former Palo Alto Unified teacher, I offer writing classes, small group and private, throughout the school year, and full-time in the summer. Additionally, I am now providing educational consulting services regarding students who are struggling, and guidance through the assessment process that the public schools provide.

Janet is the best! Janet is a retired elementary school teacher now focused on doing what she loves most - helping kids of all ages and ability levels love writing. She also has the sweetest dogs ❤️
Janet (Mrs. Rose) is a wonderful teacher! My son who was a 1st grader had been struggling to write for the whole year in kindergarten. He was so proud of himself after the first class, the other day when he was his writing class, he was able to write independently for 3 pages! That's the amount which took him more than a week before.Because we were doing online class, I was sitting next to him. I saw how Mrs. Rose is good at engaging with him by reading him a good book first and used it to bring him to think how to write for his own. She was super patient with my son to help him organize his ideas into a connected writing piece. (He could throw many ideas at one time, it's not an easy task to stay connected with him without losing patience)After taking teacher Janet's private classes for 3 months, he gradually gained some confidence to write. My son who used to hate and struggled with writing and threw paper on the floors in few minutes now became a much confident writer. I am very thankful for the individual support he received from Mrs. Rose to transform his writing experiences become more pleasant and positive.
My daughter's writing has fully blossomed with Janet.I became concerned when I noticed my daughter writing the same simple stories, year after year, in elementary school. As a volunteer, I could see that the school was teaching students about how to write more descriptively and creatively. For some reason, it wasn't getting through to my daughter. It wasn't until she worked one-on-one with Janet that she had a breakthrough. My daughter was so proud to show us her "before and after" story: her simple retelling of an event was transformed into an expressive and engaging tale. She was thrilled when Janet wanted to show it to other young students as a model and teaching tool.Now, many years later, my daughter still enjoys her summer sessions with Janet.
