Creative Writing - learn to write and shape your talent

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
You can't learn to write ... Because it's a talent and a person is born with it. I can only help you to recognize, shape and tailor this talent - depending on whether you are writing short stories, texts for the Internet, advertising, slogans or just for yourself and "your soul".

About Me

My students describe me as a teacher who is fun, teaches interactively and gives specific guidelines.
The lessons are classically structured and the students have a good basis on which they can further expand their vocabulary and knowledge. I emphasize the practical use of language, dialogue and the specific use of terminology - depending on the purpose and reason why someone chooses to learn a specific language. The approach is classic I would say, but it gives results.
Aside from my love of foreign languages, I have been translating and writing for many years (I am the author of several books and one dictionary). I have been working with words and languages all my life...

Education

- University of Macedonia, Thessaloniki, Greece, diploma in education and social policy (corresponds to special education), grade: very good: 7.65
- “IEK” Vocational School of Thessaloniki, Greece, diploma in graphic design

Experience / Qualifications

Reviews (1)

Natasa really does an amazing job and tries to do the lessons accordinng to your goals.
In my life I have been fortunate to have two mother tongues - and both are very important to me. The lessons I give are interactive, with many examples from everyday life, structured in a classic way, but with a lot of interesting texts. In this way the students get to know the history and mentality of this country. With the necessary reference to grammar, of course, which represents the structure of every language. I offer a well-structured basis on which the students can later build on their knowledge.

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 I am a published author and produced screenwriter. Don't miss your chance to take one of my classes. You and your writing skills won't regret it.

Poetry writing: explore the building blocks for fun and effective poems!
This class will introduce you to some building blocks for writing effective poetry. This will focus on imaginative and descriptive aspects of poetry, as opposed to technical and academic aspects. It also works for creative writing in general. However, it will specifically focus on some of the more playful and concise elements of poetry, as opposed to the structure and narrative of prose, for example. There are a lot of barriers and negative preconceptions around poetry which I am to dismantle - building confidence and making poetry feel fun, as opposed to fearful! Enthusiasm is more important to me than academic ability. I also welcome pupils who speak English as an additional language and will try my best to accommodate as many access needs as possible. Please message me if you have any access needs that you'd like to discuss in advance.

Engaging Creative Writing Classes (For All Levels)
I am a tutor with 7+ years of experience teaching at a variety of levels from primary school to GCSE level. I teach English Language, English Literature, ESOL (English for speakers of other languages), Maths, and Creative Writing. I have a special passion for creative writing, which I specifically studied in my joint honours degree (BA English with Creative Writing), and specialise in producing stories, written poetry, and spoken word poetry which I have previously performed at events. I have run creative writing workshops for children at previous educational centres and love to make writing enjoyable, engaging and exciting for all of my students at all levels. I believe the most successful results come from fostering a friendship with my students, and providing constant encouragement and support in their areas of interest. I pride am an attentive listener and I carefully plan my lessons according to the specific needs of my students, which is particularly helpful for my SEN, ESOL, and younger pupils. At the beginning of every lesson I also do short icebreaker activities and challenges with my students, using a points reward system to keep them engaged. Previous students have gone on to become the top of their class and receive recognition at school for both English and Maths. Lessons start at 1 hour in length, with longer lessons available if required. Lessons are structured according to the needs of the student; this can be working alongside their class syllabus to support them with progress at school, tackling an area or subject they want to excel at, and helping them prepare for national exams such as GCSEs. I provide feedback after every lesson and detailed progress reports every six months for each student. I primarily offer online lessons as I have found this works well for me and my students, but in some cases I do teach face-to-face depending on location and availability within London. Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have - I look forward to speaking with you soon!
