“I loved taking Ms. Burt's class- the class environment made me feel really comfortable, and I never felt pressure to share anything or make comments. Ms. Burt is really kind and offers helpful writing suggestions and does a good job of praising students for their accomplishments, while still motivating them to write. You will love your year with Ms. Burt!!“ -Jamin D., student
"I watched a class for one year thrive under her guidance: Marissa Burt paved the way in front of the whole class not just to write confidently, and to write better, but to identify as writers. I'm a fan!" - Bonnie D., parent
"Marissa Burt's writing class opened the door for my daughter to realize that writing can be fun and addictive. Marissa engages fully with all the students in the class helping them along with their writing journies no matter what level they are working through. Each student left her class with new confidence and skills to carry them into the world of expressing themselves well in words. Her class is a gift." -Kim C., parent
“Mrs. Burt's How to Write and Publish a Novel class changed my life. I have always loved writing books ever since I was little. I thought I was a good writer then, but little did I know I had a long way to go. Mrs. Burt's class not only gave me incredible knowledge on writing and editing and doing it all with grace, but I also built the best friendships I could have asked for! Everyone in the class instantly bonded through sharing our work and laughing at inside jokes in our own books. Mrs. Burt made writing fun! I looked forward to coming to class every week. Writing homework didn't even feel like homework because it was so enjoyable. I will never forget Mrs. Burt and the impact that class had on my life. I am still writing and editing my book, and still keep in touch with all the friends I made during the class. If you have the opportunity to take one of her classes, do it! I remember telling my mom the next year, whatever Mrs. Burt taught, I would take it. It wasn't just the subject, it was the teacher. Mrs. Burt is amazing, so sweet and honest and realistic. I miss being in her class, but every single day I use the lessons she taught the class and thank God for giving me the best experience of my life. " —Aynsley K 😁, student
"Mrs. Burt helped me immensely in my high school writing experience. Her classes taught me valuable lessons in grammar, writing, and time management. She was a very encouraging and understanding teacher and she made classes fun and interactive. I'm extremely grateful to her for all that she did for me." -Neria Z., student
”"Mrs. Burt’s class was one of the best classes I've taken. The material was easy to learn, and Mrs. Burt made the learning experience fun and made me feel heard. If I ever had a problem, she went out of her way to help me understand it. She was available in and out of the classroom and was dedicated to helping her students. She worked with each student, considering each one of their learning styles and writing levels. She was kind and understanding which created a comfortable learning environment. I cannot recommend Mrs. Burt’s classes any more. It was an incredible class.” - Gracie S., student
