Young Writers USA Avis 

Emma gave me the information I needed to know about the contest, and how long till I would recieve an award or not.

Aaliyah, thank you for your prompt response. You clarified all my questions via your email. I appreciate all you do. The students were extremely thrilled to enter the contest. They like to work on such projects, Thank you again.

As a teacher in Ontario, I've entered my class into the Young Writers contest for three years. The themes are always engaging and get even the most reluctant writers excited. Seeing my students' work published in a real book has been transformative for their confidence and pride. The resources provided make it so easy to integrate into the curriculum. A truly wonderful program!

The experience for my students is priceless!
However, communication with the company was very challenging. I loved the quality of the book very much and I would participate in the contest again because of the joy it gave my students to see their work in print!

Good customer service

Young Writers gave my granddaughter a chance to publish her poem. It is such a great school program. In addition, Gemma was so helpful in helping us obtain a frameable copy.

My students loved the competition! My only reason for giving 4 stars was for the communication. My students’ certificates were sent to a school on the other side of the country, which was strange. Thankfully, the teacher who received them contacted me and we got it sorted. But both of us had difficulties trying to reach Young Writers. My emails did not seem to be reaching them. Finally, we got in touch. In the last few weeks the communication seems to be better. I do think I will do this competition again! My students were extremely excited to hear they were getting published!

My middle school students LOVE these competitions. It's not only a break from the day in day out curriculum grind, it's a way for students to truly experience creative writing. The recent poetry contest had the entire school submitting their entries. While not everyone can win, the process itself is rewarding; and that's why we keep coming back to Young Writers year after year.

My students really enjoyed the writing contest. The materials provided were very helpful, appropriate and easy to use. I highly recommend this contest and the customer service has been excellent!

I was late in submitting approval for my child's short story into the publication, and Young Writers was so responsive and helpful. They even offered an alternative so that my daughter's work could still be published in another publication. Such a great program for kids!

Aaliyah responded promptly and was able to send me a pic of my child's artwork that I had not yet received.

My students loved this competition. My students work was going to be published however I got the parent permission slip super late passed the deadline in the mail. I emailed the company and they were super understanding and her work was able to get published. The kids had a lot of fun, and I will definitely be doing it again with them in the upcoming school year.

This is my first year having my students write the 100 word stories. It was fun having them challenged to eliminate words and get down to the 100 words, while still keeping the integrity of their stories. I will definitely do this with my classes next year.

My daughter is super excited to have her book published how exciting the confidence they give these children is great

I recently had the pleasure of working with Young Writers USA, and I cannot recommend them enough for any educator looking to enhance their students' writing experiences! They provided an exceptional writing contest that was engaging and highly enriching for my students.

Gemma’s email response was friendly, professional, and answered all my questions. I appreciate the email!

My students were thrilled to see that their work was being published with Young Writers USA. As part of our unit on poetry, each 6th grader submitted one piece to the Beautiful Truth Poetry Contest. Gemma was very supportive in facilitating the process, sending communications to families and students about their success.

My 3rd graders short story got published this month and the staff at young writers was really good about keeping me updated thank you

Always really friendly helpful and encouraging
