Service Description
Course description Can your child confidently write about their own experiences, thoughts, and feelings? In this engaging eight-week writing course, young learners will discover how to transform their ideas into well-structured personal essays. Through fun activities, model texts, guided writing, and personalised feedback, students will learn how to communicate their experiences clearly and creatively. Personal essays help children develop essential writing skills that support success across the curriculum. They encourage reflection, organisation, vocabulary development, and the ability to express ideas with confidence. L1 - What Is a Personal Essay?

Eight insightful lessons are spread over an eight-week period, leaving time each week to complete interesting homework tasks where students will have the opportunity to put what they have learnt into practice and show off their newly learnt skills. The intimate class setting of only six children maximum means that each child receives pro-active personal guidance from the tutor but also allows for spirited interaction between students. This combination creates a wonderful environment for comfortable creativity whilst ensuring that each student is fully supported throughout. All learning will be consolidated with lesson feedback reports which outline the key features of the lesson, ensuring that the knowledge gained can be reviewed and revisited at the child's pleasure. Places are strictly limited to six students to ensure class quality so book early to avoid disappointment. I can't wait to get started, see you there!
