Maria João - Lisbon, PortugalC$55

C$55Creative Writing & Storytelling Sessions — All levels

Trusted teacher: I offer creative writing sessions for teenagers and adults, suitable for complete beginners as well as writers who already have written work (short stories, scripts, monologues, poems, etc.) and would like feedback, structure and discussion. These sessions focus on storytelling and the creative process, using writing exercises, prompts and conversation to help develop ideas into characters, worlds and scenes, with the option to edit or rewrite existing texts. My approach is practical and flexible, focused on helping each writer find their own voice rather than following rigid formulas. I have a postgraduate degree in Storytelling and have published a book, as well as essays in magazines and newspapers, and continue to work on scriptwriting projects. Alongside writing, I work as an actress, which strongly informs my approach to character, voice and dialogue. Sessions are available in English or Portuguese, online or in person in Lisbon, in a café or similar relaxed space, and are always adapted to each student’s level and interests.

C$68Creative Music Expression - Understanding Music

Trusted teacher: Would you like to approach the creative writing of music? Would you like to fully understand the languages and the way music works? Can I help you! Like any form of creative expression, music has its rules, rooted in perception and in the context around us. We will be able to work on fundamental concepts of musical expression, valid in all genres and also delve into the area that interests you the most (baroque, classical, pop, jazz...) My course has a non-academic approach and it is open to all: whether you are professionals who want to deepen their musical knowledge, or you are amateurs or beginners we can build the perfect course for you and that will allow you to express yourself or simply to better understand the music you are listening to. The only thing I highly recommend is knowing how to read music, because it allows us to go much faster. If you are not able, we can start there.

Being a musician, I write song lyrics for several projects. I have been writing poetry and freelance writing for over 10 years. I am also a content creator for a French-speaking Belgian webzine; Shoot Me Again. My background in literature and linguistics helped me to have a sensitivity to language.

Arthur - Andenne, BelgiumC$48

C$48Drawing lessons - writing - 2D animation - observational drawing

Drawing and writing are two ancient forms of expression that many artists have used before becoming masters in their field. Traditional frame-by-frame animation (on paper or in 2D on a computer) is a less ancient process but highly instructive in the understanding of movement. This audiovisual technique obviously allows us to express ourselves in a more modern medium that combines image and sound to entertain, make people laugh, move them or transmit strong values. With 12 years of experience in the Academy of Fine Arts, a Bachelor's degree in Visual and Spatial Arts from Saint-Luc, Brussels, and a Master's degree in Animation Cinema from the prestigious Academy of Fine Arts in Ghent (the oldest animation teaching department in Europe), I offer: - For beginners: an initiation and understanding of the basics of drawing from imagination and observation in order to gradually acquire an increasingly solid technique. - For intermediate/students in art education or more experienced enthusiasts: development of their already acquired techniques, correction of defects as well as help with projects requested by the school or for amateurs who wish to design a written/drawn/animated work for their pleasure. - For advanced/higher education students in ESA: sustained assistance and coaching for the development of projects whether in drawing, writing, storyboarding, animation or concept (installation, video game experience). Finally, I offer these more seasoned artists the development of their own style in order to distinguish themselves and offer a unique aesthetic for their singular point of view on the world.

William - United KingdomC$173

C$173Professional Writing - Novels, Plays, Screenplays, Articles, and Journalism

A lot of folks dream of becoming a professional writer. The issue that most of them face is that they have a Hollywood bias towards the entire process, believing that every writer is a brooding, misunderstood artist who makes their own rules and deadlines. The truth is, not every professional writer is a novelist. Not every professional writer has an agent. In fact, the vast majority of professional writers have neither of those things. They take on gigs. They work to deadlines. They rarely get 'writer's block' and they deliver on time and on budget. My name is Bill. As a writing professional with nine well reviewed novels, four audiobooks, and hundreds of five star reviews on freelance writing sites, I'm here to help you either launch or progress your writing career. Whether your goal is a published novel, or journalistic respect, or the money that ghostwriting can provide, I will tailor my course to your short and long term career plans. Just getting out of high school and you want to get a jumpstart on your writing career? I can give you the right bite-sized projects and study materials to set up your first gigs. Sick of the day to day grind, and you want to get out of your current field in order to write full time? I can help you to plan the transition, and give you the tools you need to take your shot. Looking at retirement, and you want to leave a written legacy? I can help you to assess your skills, and set you on the right path towards making a mark upon the world. I'm a proficient and practiced article writer, novelist, script writer, and playwright. So whichever path you dare to tread, I'll be able to lead the way.

Myra - London, United KingdomC$88

C$88Creative Writing Class where you Unlock your own Voice

This isn’t about perfect essays or stiff story structures. Unlock Your Voice is a one-on-one creative writing space built to help people write like they actually feel something. Each session is personal, messy, and different, because every writer is. We do a mix of everything: character sketches, short scripts, journal letters, even college essays, and whatever else helps you get the words out. Some days it’s about writing freely without overthinking. Other days it’s about pulling apart what you’ve written and finding the heartbeat inside it. There’s no pressure, no grades, just a lot of creative honesty and a few good laughs along the way. This class is about more than writing well. It’s about finding your rhythm, trusting your thoughts, and learning how to express what you actually mean. By the end, you’ll have a small collection of original work that sounds like you and definitely not like ChatGPT.
