Format: The course is delivered entirely in English and comprises 8 sessions of 2 hours each, over 4 weeks. Sessions are held on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
Each session includes a “reading” (a short story, a poem or a documentary) to spark group conversations, as well as a creative writing exercises.
Conversations: Class conversation topics will be sparked through “readings” such as video presentations of short stories and poems, as well as video presentations about writers, artists and social history. All audiovisual presentations will be subtitled in English for maximum legibility.
Creations: Creative writing exercises set in class will be short, playful and improvisational. All exercises are designed to stimulate the imagination and build participants’ confidence in their own creativity and English proficiency.
Literary Magazine: Course participants will have the opportunity to see their work in print in the course’s literary magazine. This magazine will have the format of a literary magazine in English, and will be launched after the end of the course at a separate event.
English proficiency requirement: If you understand 90% of the text above without a dictionary, your English is good enough — more on that in the course’s information page.
