Creative Writing Lessons To Help Enhance Your Skills, Abilities And Imagination As Well As Increase Marks And Grades.
Creative Writing is a way in which one can express their thoughts and emotions and let their imagination write itself out. It allows you to think creatively in which you can truly create something amazing, whether it is a story or a small piece. Either way, it becomes a form of art and expression.
Creative writing is so much more too. It is a skill. One that you can continue to develop and eventually master. My lessons will allow you to hone your skills and abilities through critiquing your work, analysing other pieces of creative writing and working on your skillset until you are confident in your writing as I will be too.
I'm always happy to design lessons to individual needs and preferences. Your opinion is always important in needing to help you reach the best you can be.
Lessons will be done over audio call with screen sharing on my part.
This allows for a more comfortable yet engaging and interactive experience.
Pen, paper and different coloured pens or highlighters should be with you for all lessons please. This is essential when taking notes or collaborating/ mind mapping ideas.
Headphones or earphones are recommended so that you can hear better. This isn't a requirement though.

These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option.

English: Communication, Vocabulary, creative writingIn my typical communication and writing class, I focus on engaging students through a hands-on, interactive approach. I believe in fostering an environment where students feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and ideas. My classes often begin with a brief introduction to the day’s topic, whether it’s vocabulary building, sentence structure, or crafting compelling narratives. I encourage participation by incorporating group discussions, writing exercises, and real-life examples to make the content relatable.
During the lessons, I emphasize clarity, coherence, and creativity in writing. I guide students on how to effectively organize their thoughts and use precise vocabulary to convey their messages. We analyze various writing styles, dissecting passages to understand tone, style, and purpose.
Feedback is a crucial part of the process, so I regularly provide constructive criticism, helping students identify areas for improvement while celebrating their strengths. I also prioritize practical application, encouraging students to write short pieces during class, which we review together. This allows them to immediately apply what they’ve learned and improve through practice.
By the end of the class, my goal is for students to leave feeling more confident in their communication skills and inspired to continue refining their writing abilities.
