Rachelle · an AI-generated voice, by ElevenLabs.
The little robot.
The complete subject.
Dances.
The verb and predicate.
One complete thought. The beginning of something bigger.
A little guidance. A lot of possibility.
Every lesson runs in three stages, and the studio stays with a student through all three: watch how it works, work through it together, then make it their own.
Wow! She carefully carried the tiny robot into class.
All eight parts of speech, each with its job and an example, beside the sentence they are doing it in.
The wind rose, and the kite soared.
Choose an answer and find out why it works, then rebuild the model sentence piece by piece, punctuation included.
Listen. Notice. Understand.
A worked example, an explanation of why it works, and a tip that answers the thing students usually ask next. Rachelle reads it aloud on request.
Work through it together.
One question with a reason for every answer, right or wrong, and a model sentence to rebuild from its pieces.
Make it your own.
Write from a prompt, review your draft against three checks, and keep your writing. It saves to your Skhillz account as you type.
Eight word tools, in one lesson that covers every one.
Lesson two is the word toolkit: what each part of speech contributes, and how to choose words that help a reader picture an idea.
A clear path from words to expression.
Build your first sentence
Subjects, predicates and agreement, then one independent clause with every detail earning its place.
Explore sentence structures
Simple, compound, complex and compound-complex, and what makes each one work.
Choose a purpose
Make a statement, ask a question, give a direction, express a strong feeling, and connect a condition with a result.
Develop your writing
The revision lab, and a daily challenge whose prompt changes with the day of the month. Thirty-one of them.
Before the first lesson.
What is included?
Forty-five lessons in eight parts. The eight parts of speech, each one taught on its own. A punctuation studio of ten lessons, which comes before any sentence building, because the comma that joins two sentences is needed three times later on. Subjects and predicates, objects and agreement. Simple, compound, complex and compound-complex sentences, with fragments and run-ons. Sentence variety and purpose. Appositive phrases, restrictive and non-restrictive. Linking sentences into a five-sentence paragraph. A revision lab, and a daily challenge with thirty-one rotating prompts. Every lesson has all three stages.
How much does it cost?
Sentence Builder Studio is $64.99, bought once. Each person’s writing is saved to their own Skhillz account. There is no free trial.
Does my child need their own login?
Yes, for their writing to be saved under their own name. You buy it on your account, add your child to your family, and switch on their login. That gives you a username and a password to pass on. You can work through the lessons on your own account too.
Where is the writing kept?
In your Skhillz account, saved while your student types, so they can start on one device and carry on from another. They can download any draft to keep a copy.
Does it grade the writing?
No. It checks basic mechanics, such as whether a draft opens with a capital letter and ends with a punctuation mark, and it offers a three-point self-review. It does not score writing or judge grammar, and it says so on the screen where a student might otherwise assume otherwise.
Is the voice a real teacher?
No. Rachelle is an AI-generated voice, made with ElevenLabs, and the studio says so wherever she speaks. Narration is optional: every lesson can be read on the page.
Your ideas deserve clear words.
