There are so many questions when it comes to creative writing and its uses in EFL classrooms. What is it? What language levels of students can it be used with? What learning outcomes can it help with? Where does an English teacher find creative writing tasks to use with their students?

If you have ever found yourself asking these questions, this workshop is for you! On March 7 at 5:30 p.m. MSK, together we will try to find the answers to the most puzzling questions about creative writing and its uses in the EFL classroom.

In this 90-minute workshop, we will:

• look at different ways of using creative writing in our classrooms,

• practice generating creative writing prompts to suit the needs of our students,

• walk in our students’ shoes and write together. 

‼️ Please, note that this is a workshop, not a webinar, so all the participants are expected to actively participate.

The workshop is facilitated by Elizaveta Zanozina (FLEX alumna, CAE and TOEFL), an aspiring English teacher, an avid reader, and a passionate writer.
