Student Success Stories

From the Bay Area and beyond, these students have thrived at Sentence Center.

Hi, I’m Chino, founder of Sentence Center.

After being a classroom teacher for decades, I realized one thing – kids don’t write enough at school. My teenage students avoided writing because “it’s too hard!” My own children felt frustrated finishing essays and stories. I had to act.
I created Sentence Center, an online school that focuses on teaching writing. Though we’ve grown through the years, our mission remains the same: we help kids and teens become strong and confident writers.
Along with reading our story, see what we do in our writing classes every week, meet our passionate teachers, and check out our class schedule.
