Join us for 8 classes of Creative Writing for Non-Writers starting on May 1st designed to help develop writing fundamentals, creative capacity, and confidence. Our ideal student is someone who needs a little extra push to put their self out there and write. It is an especially great course for those who are struggling with communication at work, learning English, or want a break from their usual routine.
The
instructor, Lisa Pfau, is the founder and CEO of PFAU: Academic
writing, editing, and coaching. She has over 10 years experience helping
students to improve their writing skills in academic and professional
settings, as well as editing/writing many academic, government, and
professional documents and reports. Her real passion is injecting
creativity into generally boring texts to make the reader laugh or
engage. She also published a few creative works of her own, including a
short story entitled “Cold War” in Horizon Magazine based on her
experiences in China. She looks forward of getting out of her managerial
role back into the creative side that drew to build her business in the
first place – writing.
