When it comes to teaching creative writing or English, I follow a feet-forward approach. This means that my students will practically engage with the subject matter in fun yet valuable ways as they apply theory to practical application.

I believe practical engagement is vital to learning.

In a discussion-led environment for students who wish to improve their creative fiction writing skills, we will, for example, examine story structure, understand genre tropes and themes, how to create compelling characters and the role of archetypes in books, short stories, plays, and scripts.

For students needing to improve their creative nonfiction skills, I will teach them how to write clear and concise essays and understand essay structure and critical analysis. I will also teach students how to write effective blog posts and articles.

For creative and nonfiction writing, students must submit their work-in-progress before each lesson (as agreed upon) so that the work can be discussed during our time together.

After each tailored lesson, students will receive unique critical feedback on their work and be given tasks to complete before the next session. These tasks will consist of a mixture of writing exercises and relevant creative and academic readings.

If you need to improve your written and verbal English for academic, creative, and professional needs, please get in touch. I will meet the student where they are academically and work to elevate their understanding and skills through practical learning.
