Creative Writing Online Classes For Kids

1:1 fun and focused sessions to build confidence, creativity and core writing skills

Looking for a creative and enriching activity for your child this summer?

These 1:1 online creative writing lessons are designed to develop not just imagination but also structure, grammar and storytelling skills - ideal for children aged 7–12 of all abilities. I can also do these sessions face-to-face if you live in the Worthing area.

Led by an experienced primary school teacher and dyslexia specialist, each session is tailored to your child’s level and interests. My teaching is calm, positive and adapted to bring out the best in your child.

I taught in London primary schools for over 10 years and now work privately with children who have dyslexic type tendencies. These sessions however are for all children whatever their learning style or ability.

Whether you have a budding author bursting with ideas or a child who needs gentle coaxing to get started, I’m confident I can help them grow in confidence and skill.

Some of the things we'll look at include:

Character development: building interesting, believable characters
Plot structure: how to plan and pace a story that grips the reader
Setting and description: using vivid language to bring scenes to life
Punctuation and grammar checks in a supportive way
Tips for editing and improving work

There will be:

Personalised feedback
Flexible scheduling
Quiet encouragement and expert support

Ideal for both enthusiastic and reluctant writers

Sessions take place on Zoom or in person and can be booked weekly or intensively to suit your family's summer or term-time plans.
