As Level Two is intended for students who have already completed Level One, it is primarily going to be a high school text.

However, it is certainly applicable to younger students who have made their way completely through the entirety of Level One. The lessons and methods in Level Two build upon those introduced in Level One, so any student who jumps straight into this new level will be very confused.

After all, writing is an art, like music or painting. Thus it’s skills build upon each other. You must have a firm foundation in the elementary skills before you can go on to the more advanced skills.

That said, if your student has learned to write through a program rooted primarily in the skill and art of imitation than they will probably be comfortable adapting to The Lost Tools of Writing™, Level Two.

We recommend a methodical and purposeful pace be adapted according to the needs and skills of your student(s).
