SUMMARY DESCRIPTION (IN BRIEF):
➤Unleash your writing skills and finally realize your writing project!
Novels, short stories, life stories, theses, songs or simple texts: these workshops help you overcome your blocks and transform your ideas into vivid and inspiring stories.

➤ Together, we will work to:
-Overcome your fear of the blank page and awaken your creativity
-Develop style, vocabulary, coherence and authenticity
-Creating characters, settings, and captivating storylines
-Explore your imagination, your emotions, and your flaws to turn them into a strength
-Alternating theory and practice with concrete exercises and personalized feedback

➤ Proofreading, correction, optimization of your texts possible.
➤Objective: to write with pleasure, progress faster and bring your project to completion.

➤Let yourself be guided: your dream of writing can become a reality.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
➤Exploring and sharing the pleasure of words, building the stories that inhabit you, developing your expression, deepening your creativity, exploring contemporary writing, proposing a novel, short stories, a life story, an (auto)biography, a fiction, an essay, song lyrics, various texts or simply a report, a thesis, a report for professional or academic purposes... these are among the objectives of these workshops to deepen or initiate writing and realize one's aspirations by prioritizing the pleasure of writing based on elements of personalized pedagogy.

➤Overcome your fears and unlock creative inspiration to finally complete your project.

Let yourself be guided and finally realize your dream of writing.
➤ Overcome your fears
➤ Discover the secret to producing high-quality writing that's 100% enjoyable and 0% writer's block.
➤ Awaken this writer's flame that has been dormant in you for a long time
➤ Build unwavering legitimacy and overcome the fear of failure, lack of time and procrastination that keep you from moving forward.

In short, overcome your fear of writing. Isn't it frustrating to be consumed by the desire to write your project and yet unable to do so? Break down that insurmountable wall that's holding you back.

This involves combining improvements in form with refinements in content. For example, concrete techniques for starting your text and overcoming writer's block, feedback/suggestions on your texts, writing and style exercises based on a prompt, a series of precise/pragmatic recommendations and their implementation.

That is why, if your manuscript is stuck and you don't know how to start or continue it, if you have all the ideas but don't know what form they should take, if you want to save time in the creative process: let's build the architecture of your story together.

Learning objectives include:
• Discover writing, build confidence, let your own literary voice/path emerge, and unleash your imagination
• Studying and constructing a text, song lyrics...
• Calmly refine the style and create consistency between form and content
• Research and develop your vocabulary
• Acquire techniques and know-how to convey your message both clearly and simply
• Differentiate between writing for oneself and writing for others
• Explore your creativity and develop your expression
• To construct a complete story by creating characters, settings, lively scenes...
• Acquire and master practical writing tools, always with a focus on simplicity/simplification and efficiency (both in content and form)
• Discover contemporary writing and diversify your practice
• Acquire narrative techniques to engage in long stories

So, start, resume or finish a piece of writing you have dreamed of for a long time if you want to write but don't know where to start; if you have a story but don't know how to tell it; if you love to write but have lost your inspiration; if you have a manuscript buried in a drawer and you are afraid of failing.

To achieve this, the first step is to unleash your writing and let go: strengthen your imagination, explore your inspiration, and cultivate your originality. Next, turn your weaknesses into a driving force for writing by exploring your wounds to better utilize them and adopt an effective writing method. Finally, master writing techniques and bring characters to life while crafting captivating stories, controlling pacing, and developing suspenseful plots.

All this by combining theory and practical/concrete applications: writing assignments based on exercises and then within the framework of your project.

During the sessions, you will be guided in your writing project. The trainer will support you in your written communication and offer tools, while helping you to work on and/or optimize your style and imagination.

Proofreading, revising, correcting and formatting articles, theses, etc.: these options are also possible.

Furthermore, these sessions allow one to improve one's written communication and to study the different methods to achieve this (email, letter, report, presentation...), both in terms of content and form.

Hi! I’m a KU Leuven student with a strong academic background in English, having completed my schooling entirely in English at a high level. I offer fun, structured English classes for primary children (6+), teens, and adults, with a focus on building real confidence rather than relying on boring memorization.

What we do in class (depending on age/level):
Speaking & confidence: conversation practice from day 1
Vocabulary & pronunciation: learn words you actually use and sound more natural
Grammar made simple: explained clearly and applied through speaking
Reading & writing support: help with schoolwork, essays, homework, and exam preparation
Fun for kids: games, stories, role-plays, and interactive activities

Language available:
English

Levels: Beginner to Advanced (kids/teens/adults)
Format: Online or in-person (Leuven)
Scheduling: Flexible, with short weekly sessions possible

If you message me, please include the student’s age, current level, and goal (school, speaking, exams, or travel), and I’ll provide a suitable plan.

One important fix though: don’t say “native English speaker” unless that’s actually true. If English is very strong but not your native language, this version is safer and still sounds professional.

Gain confidence in speaking and writing English through personalized lessons focused on your goals. I offer conversation practice and academic writing support, adapted to your level and needs.

Conversation lessons focus on real exchange:
- discussing topics that interest you
- improving fluency and natural phrasing
- refining pronunciation and vocabulary
- targeted exercises based on your objectives

Academic writing support is based on your own texts (essays, papers, theses, dissertations):
- improving clarity, structure, and coherence
- refining style and tone
- correcting grammar and idiomatic usage
- developing a more professional, natural written voice

Lessons can take place online, in a public space, or at the student’s home in Ghent, Brussels, and nearby areas.

As a native English speaker and a published author with over five years of teaching experience, I offer structured, supportive lessons tailored to each student’s goals. I hold a Master’s degree from the University of California, Berkeley and bring particular attention to pronunciation, written voice and spoken fluency.

Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a first lesson.

Hi! I’m a KU Leuven student with a strong academic background in English, having completed my schooling entirely in English at a high level. I offer fun, structured English classes for primary children (6+), teens, and adults, with a focus on building real confidence rather than relying on boring memorization.

What we do in class (depending on age/level):
Speaking & confidence: conversation practice from day 1
Vocabulary & pronunciation: learn words you actually use and sound more natural
Grammar made simple: explained clearly and applied through speaking
Reading & writing support: help with schoolwork, essays, homework, and exam preparation
Fun for kids: games, stories, role-plays, and interactive activities

Language available:
English

Levels: Beginner to Advanced (kids/teens/adults)
Format: Online or in-person (Leuven)
Scheduling: Flexible, with short weekly sessions possible

If you message me, please include the student’s age, current level, and goal (school, speaking, exams, or travel), and I’ll provide a suitable plan.

One important fix though: don’t say “native English speaker” unless that’s actually true. If English is very strong but not your native language, this version is safer and still sounds professional.
