Coach Pen

For parents

A patient writing coach for your child.

Writing is the hardest part of the selective and NAPLAN tests to improve at home — there's no answer key. Coach Pen marks your child's own writing to the real rubric and teaches the techniques that lift it, one at a time. You set it up; they do the work.

Coaches your child — never writes it for them

Coach Pen marks what your child wrote and shows them how to make it better. They do the writing; it does the teaching. No shortcuts, no copy-paste essays.

Marked to the real exam standard

Their writing is scored against the actual selective or NAPLAN rubric, with feedback on their own sentences — so practice points at what the markers really reward.

One technique at a time

Instead of a wall of corrections, Coach Pen teaches a single skill — a stronger opening, a sharper verb — until it sticks, then moves on. It feels doable, not crushing.

Progress you can see

Streaks, history, and certificates mean practice builds week to week. You can watch the writing improve instead of wondering if it is.

Give your child a coach in their corner.
