The Writing College was recommended by a friend, and in my consultation with Alex, I was skeptical that TWC methods could help me.
I felt so vulnerable and lost, especially as a busy small business owner, so I was willing to try it. I committed to the process, and I’m so glad I did!
Our first session went so well, and Alex made me feel entirely at ease and had the perfect comments and questions to prompt me to deeper and more powerful observations of my own heart and mind.
She highlighted key moments of breakthrough in my thoughts and speech patterns, and I gained invaluable perspective from TWC real-time “verbal-drafting and editing” method.
The philosophical tools and techniques she used helped me access the truth, and express what felt unsayable. Thoughts came out that I didn't even realize I had or felt, and she gave me space to process and work through them.
I've learned so much about myself and have been given so many new, rich methods for cultivating my mind and emotions in such a short period of time. My growth is absolutely the result of TWC philosophy and the language skills TWC teaches to experience profound transformation.

“The Writing College not only taught me how to write, it taught me how to think about who I am in the world. I learned to see people and situations around me using writing and editing as life skills. The 1-1 mentorship was a complete transformation in which I grew into a published writer who’s capable of conveying my message to my readers. I want to show my endless appreciation to Alex, who taught me to find my true, most confident self in language.”

I love how literature and poetry is taught as a tool for self-discovery. The TWC practices helped me understand reading and writing as powerful spiritual technologies. The "verbal drafting and revision" sessions have taken my healing and personal speaking abilities to an even higher level.
Within a few weeks I already see a change in how I view life. I feel more peace about the future, and more impassioned to read texts in sessions using methods that teach me how to be the most true version of myself.
Accessing Becoming Human philosophies through TWC has been key to my healing journey and personal transformation.

“I struggled with hearing my own voice as a young woman, but The Writing College helped me find it. Alex would often say things like: This is good but general, anyone could write this argument, especially AI! She helped me develop my distinct writing personality and identify who I am as a person. Now what I say and write stands out in class and among my peers.”

“When I first started these sessions, I had no idea how to edit. I had no idea about structure or technique in writing, or that I could learn it from reading. I would kind of skim over my paper and mostly change vocabulary words, which I now know isn’t true editing. I am so grateful I had this opportunity to grow as a reader, writer, and critical thinker. Most importantly, I am so much more confident as a young woman in STEM.”
