"This course was wonderful! My 11- and 9-year-old sons participated, and it was their first creative writing class.
They wrote their ideas on very easy-to-understand support sheets and built a story step by step. Thanks to this structured approach, even beginners like my sons were able to write a story that included plenty of effective figurative language! Even though they didn’t know much about figurative language at first, they learned and were able to use it in their writing. I was very astonished.
Each lesson had a different scenario, which made it exciting for my sons. When they received keywords from the teacher, their eyes sparkled, and began creating their story. I was amazed at their focus and creativity.
The teacher provided great guidance, introduced them to useful vocabulary, and offered plenty of praise. At first, their sentences, which were quite simple, became more and more expressive. As a result, my sons learned a lot and became much more confident in their writing.
I highly recommend this course to everyone. My sons have grown to love creative writing so much that they are eager to take more courses!"

My 9 years daughter has participated for the 1st time in the word wizard course. She thoroughly enjoyed it.
My daughter mentioned me that she can apply now pathetic fallacy confidently which she couldn’t previously. She also got clear idea now about writing techniques which and how need to include. She got to know some good vocabularies and how to appropriately use in her writing. She became a more descriptive writer now.
Thanks for teacher’s specific feedback which helps her to rectify her mistakes.
I highly recommend this course to take those who are fearful about creative writing. After taking this course , they will start enjoying creative writing.

She has also learnt how to write a creative writing structurally . She has now started enjoying creative story. She grasped the main idea which points she needs to take in her mind while writing.
I highly recommend this course to get a summary of the most important steps of all kinds of creative writing.
