The Write Way: A Journey into Creative Self-Expression
From 32.95 £ /h
Are you curious about creative writing but feel intimidated by the blank page?
Do you have stories to tell but don't know where to begin? This class is for you.
We will explore the fundamentals of creative writing, focusing on personal essays, poetry and short prose. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space for you to discover your unique voice and find confidence in your creative identity. We'll use prompts, exercises, and inspiring works to help you navigate your experiences and turn them into compelling narratives.
You will learn how to:
Generate fresh ideas and overcome writer's block.
Structure your thoughts into engaging stories.
Use vivid imagery and powerful language to bring your writing to life.
This class is about more than just writing; it's about giving yourself permission to be a creator. All levels are welcome, from those who have never written before to those looking for a renewed sense of inspiration.

About Me
As a teacher, I believe my purpose is to love, create, heal, and learn alongside my students. This is the foundation of my teaching philosophy and how I show up for every single person I work with.
I see myself as a guide, facilitator, and mentor, and my approach is always collaborative. I use plain language, real-world examples, and fun, memorable devices to break down abstract concepts and make them easily digestible. My students and I are partners in this journey, and I always take my leadership cues from them, adjusting my style to accommodate their unique needs and goals.
The students who thrive most in my classes are open-minded, brave, and driven by a sense of curiosity and humor. I ask only that you bring a willingness to try, trusting that I will never push you beyond your limits without care and support. When we work together, you'll feel empowered to move through any challenges and reach (and even exceed!) your goals.
