Do you have a teenager at home who dreams of writing a book? Do you have a young storyteller who struggles to write down hers or his stories? Do you have a child with great grammar and spelling skills but who need some inspiration to become creative in their writing? Do you have a child who writes all the time but would be helped with some structure? This class is an opportunity to give your child individual creative writing instruction. Together we will set a schedule that works for you and for 5 weeks I will help your child develop skills that will be useful for the rest of their life. The class will be a mix of 45 minute individual online classes and emails with feedback and instructions. Beware that the start date and the end that will be flexible for each student depending on when you choose to start. But the first date to start will be Wednesday, March 21 and the class will end no later than Thursday, June 21 I work with a lot of different technics to encourage children to be creative and find and master their own writing style and voice. If one thing doesn't egnite your child's imagination I will try another.

Teacher expertise and credentials
In my creative writing classes, I encourage students to draw from their experiences and thoughts to create unique pieces and share my passion for writing. This passion has been recognized with four awards for a short story and three poems, which I hope will inspire your students.
I am an immigrant from Sweden with a master's degree in education from Lund/Malmö University.
I am dedicated to forming connections with my students and customizing my teaching to suit their age. I aim to challenge my students while ensuring they never feel like failures. Patience, humor, and kindness are paramount in my approach.
As a teacher, I foster critical thinking through various activities such as research and discussions. The most rewarding part of my job is igniting my students' joy of learning and nurturing their curiosity about the world.
I believe in incorporating play into my teaching whenever possible, as I believe that everyone, regardless of age, has a playful side.
I have previously taught social and political science, religion, and geography and have nearly 25 years of experience working with children of different ages.
My diverse interests include folklore, photography, nature, books, and history, particularly on overlooked historical figures. I hope to share these interests with your students, sparking their curiosity and broadening their horizons.
I eagerly look forward to having your student in my class and am excited to embark on this learning journey together!Reviews
