Mentoring and Tuition

We offer one-to-one sessions, provided via Zoom, email and/or online chat as you prefer. We will work with you to provide a package that meets your needs and wishes, whether you would like mentoring to establish a regular writing practice, develop your skills, finish a particular project, find an agent or publish your own work. We will match you with a mentor who has experience in your particular form and genre.

The costs of our packages are unique to each student, starting at £10 for feedback on one 500-word piece which will highlight key areas to work on, and £12.50 for a half-hour Zoom discussion.

We also offer short creative writing courses on Zoom for other organisations and groups. Courses comprise four one-hour sessions, during which participants will explore aspects of writing and do in-class writing exercises to practise them. Current courses include: Writing for Wellbeing; Creative Writing Kickstart and Starting Your Novel. Recent customers include York Carers and Selby College. Costs start at £150 in total for 6-8 students per course.

All our tutors are qualified and experienced teachers, used to dealing with students with a wide range of abilities and aspirations.
