Email

Lux Writing Center course communication is done primarily through email. Students communicate with Mr. Lux either through their own email address or their parent’s email address. All email is sent to LuxWritingCenter@gmail.com.

Attachments

Writing projects can be attached to student emails. Mr. Lux will then be able to access the student’s work and respond via email with feedback.

Google Docs

“I had never used Google Docs until today but I really liked it. It made it easier to edit my paper with your comments right there. I think I would like to continue using it. I made the adjustments you suggested to my paper. Thanks so much for your help!”

An productive alternative method of feedback is through Google Docs. The student develops writing on a shared Google Doc, and Mr. Lux provides feedback through comments on the document. In this case, the emails may be used to notify each other (the student and Mr. Lux) that changes and/or comments have been made in the document.

You can view a recently completed project a student did through this method here: Technology Related Problem.

Video Calls

Optional video calls are offered for an extra fee ($20 per hour). These calls are excellent opportunities for the student to communicate beyond email, discuss ongoing projects, establish clear goals, clarify topics, receive mini grammar lessons, and more. Email instruction is Monday through Friday, making Saturdays and Sundays the best time for video calls.

Because of the personalized nature of the instruction, please email LuxWritingCenter@gmail.com for more information.
