SpellerShip Crew
Weekly support and accountability for your spelling practice
Keep up the momentum with a spelling coach and seven other parents who get it. First Crew starts mid-September.
One Crew. 8 seats.
You’ve got the boards, you've got SpellerShip. What you don’t have is anyone checking in when you skipped three days and started wondering if you’re doing this right.
Practicing alone at home is hard. The doubt, fears, disruptions and disregulation can feel overwhelming. Almost nobody keeps it up without someone in their corner.
What a Crew is
Eight parents. The same eight, every week, on a call for an hour, led by a trained spelling coach. You show up, you say how the week went, you get help with what’s stuck, and you commit to what’s next.

Wins & Challenges
Everyone shares one, out loud. Small counts. If you fell short of what you committed to, we help you figure out why.

The hot seat
Two parents each week get focused feedback on a real problem. Bring video, bring a question about your prompting, bring “he shuts down after four minutes and I don’t know why.” Everyone gets a turn.

Commitments
You say what you’re doing this week. Next week, we ask.
What’s included
A weekly hour, same time every week
One hour with your coach and your Crew. The same eight people, week after week.
Coaching on technique
Bring your prompting questions, your videos, your stuck points. Motor versus cognitive, letterboard to keyboard, regulation, the questions you have nowhere else to ask.
A group chat with your Crew
For the Tuesday night that doesn’t go well, and the Saturday something clicks. Between sessions, they’re right there.
Free SpellerShip membership
Free for as long as you’re in a Crew. Your Crew practices with SpellerShip, so your coach can see how the week actually went and start there.

8 seats. Nothing is charged today.
A place you don’t have to explain yourself
You’ve explained this to the SLP. You’ve explained it to the school. You’ve explained it at Thanksgiving.
You will not have to explain it here. Everyone in the room already believes your kid has something to say. We can skip that part and get to the work.
Your coach
Japhet Stevens
SpellerShip founder, SM PT grad, Practicing 2 years with his son
Like many of you, my journey started with watching the SPELLERS documentary and reading JB Handley's "Underestimated." It was immediately clear just how important it was to give my son the best opportunity to express himself. We started with an S2C provider, then shifted to SM with sessions at home. His communication has grown significantly over the 2 years, and although we still have a long way to go, the progress is encouraging. I'm excited to share everything I've learned along the way and to connect with other spellers!
