Creative Writing for Advanced Writers! Refine Your Story and Let Your Voice Be Heard!
Writing is an individual and vulnerable process. When we creatively write, we are telling stories, and the effectiveness of each sentence affects how readers interpret our stories and us as writers. I know better than anyone how vulnerable it can be to share your writing. I also have an intimate understanding of the technical writing skills required to keep readers engaged and to get published.
In this class, you'll learn how to:
-Structure stories and paragraphs with appropriate beats and pacing.
-Build complex, fully realized characters.
-Write engaging, realistic dialogue in novel or screenwriting format.
-Hook readers to the page using pacing techniques and red herrings.
I can provide story and character consultation and feedback on your current projects.
This is an advanced class. Please do not sign up for this class unless you have experience in creative writing. This may be a good class for a writer who has just finished their first novel and is looking for advice on editing and story consultation. It also may be a good opportunity for writers who have finished novels or scripts and are looking for advice on a new project. I also offer beginner and intermediate creative writing classes

About Me
I love to teach. I come from a family of teachers and grew up in a household where my parents were both active, enthusiastic principals.I started teaching English while I was studying psychology for my bachelor's degree. I fell in love with the international connections I was able to make with teaching ESL. Not only was I teaching students all over the world, but I got the opportunity to teach overseas in Korea where I taught adult students business English, conversational English, and book discussion. I've taught low-level beginners to advanced speakers and writers.
I'm a published author and produced screenwriter. I know how one sentence can have an incredible amount of impact. I have written dozens of novels, novellas, and scripts, and I have ghostwritten and edited mysteries, thrillers, horror, sci-fi, romance, and non-fiction to lead me to a successful freelance career.
I am friendly and a natural leader. I am passionate about education and writing. I am a highly-skilled professional, and I would love to see you in my class some day soon.

Learn to write and pronounce Arabic easily and with some fun!The Arabic writing system may seem challenging at first glance, but in reality, it’s a beautifully structured alphabet that anyone can learn. With the right approach and a bit of dedication, mastering it takes less time than you might think.
In this class, we will learn and memorize the shape of the letters and their correct pronunciation through listening exercises and writing practice. As we explore the alphabet, we will also dive into Arabic culture and traditions, making the learning process both engaging and meaningful.
After years of teaching Arabic, I created this class to help:
Curious learners who want to explore the Arabic alphabet and pronunciation.
Arabic speakers who never had the chance to learn how to write.
Those struggling with the language and looking for a stress-free way to break the ice.

All this by combining theory and practice: Writing work from exercises then as part of a personal project.
During the sessions, you are guided in your writing project. The trainer accompanies you and teaches you the preparation method, gives you writing tools and helps you work on your style and your imagination.

These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option.
