The Writing Center offers a variety of fun and stimulating essay prompts to which students will
provide a response. Essay topics have been chosen specific for the developing writer, with their
interests and abilities in mind. Once a student completes an essay, he or she sends it to one of
our Writing Center instructors, who will grade and evaluate the essay and offer suggestions for
improvement.

Select Topics

Learning how to write a grammatically correct essay does not easily translate into writing a great essay.
The challenge of good essay writing is to fully express oneself clearly within a short time frame. This is difficult to say the least.
Most papers written for English classes are written over weeks. At SOS, we know that preparation is the key to success.
We have carefully selected topics that will both stimulate and engage the student. Our qualified teachers have created a test
bank that maximizes a student’s potential with thought-provoking questions related to current and historical events.

Well organized scores

Well written essays will receive a score of “good” as rated by our teachers. Our cychers (cyber-teachers) have a grading rubric
that scales each essay according to quality. Each section or paragraph is graded on an individual basis. The separate scores are
tallied and a final composite score is given, ensuring that each grade is fairly deserved.

Detailed correction

Our cychers devote a great amount of effort to grading each essay.
Furthermore, the process of grading the essay doesn’t just end with the student receiving a score?
Our cychers leave comments on the essays, just as an English professor would, designating each
student’s tendencies with appropriate feedback. We believe that a grade is just a grade,
but learning something from that A or B is so much more important.
In the end, don’t we all just want to improve?
