Student Writing Samples
 
To note progress, we ask tutors to submit a writing sample from their student once a quarter. Here are some true examples. Please remember that a majority of the writers are NOT native speakers of English.

If I won a million dollars I want to buy a house, a car and everything for my children. I want to give my teacher something. She helps me with everything.    ~ May
 
I help my wife. I wash the dishes. I vacuum the carpet. I give my son a shower, and make food. My wife is pregnant. I'm happy and my son and my family are too.   ~ Edwar
 
I'm talking about my family. I've to tell you that, we had been very happy for the last five months; the reason is that my wife got pregnant five months ago. Since she became pregnant every body has been guessing if there is going to be a boy or a girl. My two sons want a boy to play with but my wife and I want a girl.   ~ Ricardo
 
Today I write when in September 19 of 1985 in my country was destroy per the tremor. I remember this day because in that time my family haven't per eat because loss lot of your little store. I remember too, what this day was for me a day very ugly, because I looked many people dead and I have many scared, for me and my father and my brother because we looked all the tremor in the Mexico City.  ~Maria
