Class Experience

Come join the FUN of creative writing! In this 5 week class we will focus on bringing out the creativity in your writing. This course is designed for learners to create original forms of descriptive writing, drama, fiction and bring FUN to writing! Whether you love writing, are looking to improve your writing or want to find a love for writing this class is for all! 

Each week there will be a focus. We will take time to write based on the weekly focus and learners will have the opportunity to share their writing pieces with the class. 

Week 1: Learner choice writing prompts
              Learners will choose from a list of writing prompts, we'll do some short story writing based on the prompt.
Week 2: 5 Senses Writing
              Learners will write and work to include their 5 senses in their short story writing.
Week 3: News Headline Swap
              Each learner will find a news headline that another learner will then have to write the story for.
Week 4: Story Writing Mash-up part 1
              Learners will write the END of their story, then the middle and then the beginning.
Week 5: Story Writing Mash-up part 2
              Learners will finish their writing mash-up short story and share with the class. 

Learners will be encouraged to share feedback with their peers and give suggestions on how they can add to their writing. 

The course will work to help learners develop and improve their vocabulary development, creative writing techniques, active listening and public speaking skills. By having different writing topics each week and encouraging peer to peer interactions students will be able to build upon their skills. 

My teaching style encourages interaction and peer to peer discussion. I enjoy writing and working to help students dive into their creative side! This is one of my favorite classes to teach!!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Welcome, thank you for taking an interest in my classes! My name is Katlin, I hold a Bachelor of Science in Public Relations and Masters in Public Administration. I currently work within the non-profit sector as an Executive Director and am a mom of 2. I love the opportunity to work within the community and with all ages across our departments. I taught at the pre-k level for 3 years, worked with youth 3-12 years of age in a summer program for 7 years and have the opportunity to mentor ages 12-18 within my career over the past 13 years. 

I'm excited for the opportunity to teach within this platform sharing knowledge, helping students grow confidence and getting them inspired through creativity!

In my work experience I have interviewed across multiple backgrounds and levels of part-time, full-time and the Executive level. I believe making the smallest adjustment in pre and post interview prep and answering open-ended interview questions successfully can make a difference in getting a job.  I am excited about holding an interactive class to help students gain confidence in the overall interview process from prepping to the post-thank you! I look forward to hearing from the students, sharing tips and sharing some real life examples to help along the way!

In my time teaching I loved watching student's creativity unfold! When you give a child the space to create and share their ideas you can see the excitement and confidence grow. As a teacher seeing a child get excited about what they're creating is one of the best experiences! I am looking forward to the opportunity to hold classes to bring out creativity and great discussion. 

I hope to see you in the classroom to gain knowledge, confidence and feel inspired!
