Masterclasses with Claudine: "Please Elaborate."

Artistic Strategies Academy is an English writing school based in Singapore, delivering our signature Artistic Writing™ Programme for young writers aged 6 to 14. Developed from Harvard University, Artistic Strategies Academy's signature Artistic Writing™ Programme is a unique and enriching creative writing programme; the first of its kind in Singapore. The instructors at Artistic Strategies Academy use various art forms such as visual arts, clay, movement, and drama to engage and enthuse students in interactive and hands-on learning. Instead of outdated rote-learning and memorisation techniques, the Artistic Writing™ Programme grooms young writers to draw inspiration from their own artistic creations and produce original written pieces.

Artistic Strategies Academy

Do you see the words "Please elaborate." on your children's compositions a lot?
Do your children write brief sentences and paragraphs and when you ask why, they say, "I don't know what else to write"?
Are your children being penalised for not having enough ideas or for the quality of their ideas?
If your answer to any of these questions is a "YES", then this masterclass was made for your children.
The participants will be taught concrete strategies to:
1) Ask themselves relevant prompting questions.
2) Answer these prompting questions to expand on their sentences and paragraphs.
3) Identify and add in relevant and important details that are often missing
 The techniques that they will be taught will not only make their compositions stand out (and get them their A grades) but also enable them to become more effective writers who communicate well, beyond the PSLE.
By the end of this masterclass, participants will be more confident in developing their ideas whenever they write.
Spaces are limited to the first 6 participants who register.
