Creative Writing Course

_Students will:

• Learn to write their own story modelled on an example of good English text.
• Practise using mind mapping and other tools for planning and organising a well-structured narrative text.
• Understand the stages through which a narrative should progress
• Explore how to use appropriate language for the genre
• Examine adjectives, adverbs and verbs as a means to creating compelling and interesting text that engages the reader.
• Gain a wider and more varied vocabulary that they can draw on for future written expression.
• Manipulate interesting and complex sentence structures
• Apply invaluable self-editing skills.

All these skills will be revised in their own written text and benefit any future written expression they are required to do as school assignments. With the small class size, students are assured of personal attention and immediate feedback. Dynamic and empathetic tutors will impart invaluable knowledge and skills in a nurturing and positive environment.
