Creative Writing E-Course for High School Students ages 14-18 Starting in January 2018:
During this 12-week course, instructor Charlotte Donlon will provide weekly emails with teaching content and assignments, including daily writing prompts, reading assignments, and creative writing assignments. She will also provide custom, substantive feedback and suggestions on all completed assignments. The course price of $400 includes a 10-minute introductory Skype session and three 20-minute Skype sessions over the course of the 12 weeks for Ms. Donlon to answer questions and/or discuss her feedback and suggestions in more detail. She will require a parent or guardian to be copied on all emails between the students and her to make sure the parent is in the loop on what's being taught and discussed.
The first session will run January-March 2018. The maximum number of students will be 8 per 12 weeks. The class will be offered again April-June, July-September, and in 12-week chunks moving forward. If anyone would like to reserve a spot for a student or if they have any questions, they can email Ms. Donlon at cbdonlon@gmail.com or call her at 205-542-3770.
