(And Why Think Talk Is the Perfect Place to Start)





In a world filled with constant communication—texts, emails, essays, presentations—being able to express yourself clearly and creatively is more important than ever. But here’s the thing: writing isn’t just a school skill. It’s a life skill. It’s a confidence-builder. It’s a doorway into imagination, empathy, and self-expression.


That’s why the Creative Writing Course at Think Talk is more than just a class; it’s a journey into your child’s voice, ideas, and storytelling power.


What Makes This Course Special?


Our Creative Writing course invites students to explore three rich and exciting genres: poetry, creative non-fiction, and short fiction. From day one, students dive into the beauty and rhythm of language, reading and analyzing powerful examples before crafting their own original work.


For example, in the Poetry Unit, students experiment with form, structure, and theme, writing, revising, and sharing poems that reflect their unique thoughts and emotions. In the Creative Non-Fiction Unit, they learn how to turn real-life experiences into moving, meaningful narratives by blending truth with storytelling techniques. In the Short Story Unit, they explore plot, character, and setting, writing original tales that draw readers into new worlds.


What makes the course even more impactful is its collaborative atmosphere. Students receive feedback through peer workshops, revise their drafts, and present their work with pride—learning how to grow as writers while supporting each other’s creative voices.


Why Every Kid Benefits


Whether your child dreams of becoming an author or just wants to express themselves better, creative writing helps them:

  • Think critically and creatively

  • Build confidence in their voice

  • Develop empathy by stepping into different characters' shoes

  • Communicate clearly and persuasively

  • Find joy in the writing process


The course ends with a personal writing portfolio, a beautiful collection of poems, stories, and non-fiction pieces that showcase not just their work, but their growth as young writers.


At Think Talk, we believe every child has a story worth telling. Our Creative Writing course gives them the tools and the space to tell it.tive Writing course gives them the tools and the space to tell it.
