Spark your child’s creativity this summer by putting pen to paper
This summer, boost your child’s creativity with our exciting English course, designed to enhance their creative writing skills. Our summer courses go beyond what children have already learned at school or AE Tuition. They offer a unique opportunity to apply their knowledge creatively with guidance and coaching from our specialist teachers and teaching team.
Keep your child’s brain active this summer
Not all children enjoy physical activity clubs over summer holidays. Some children enjoy the mixture of physical and academic activities, but some just want the mental challenge of something creative. Our summer courses provide an engaging alternative summer club, perfect for children who enjoy an academic challenge or want to prepare for the 11+ exam.
You and your child can choose from English (13-day course), Essential Maths (13-day course), Verbal& Non-verbal Reasoning and Technical English (10-day course), and Advanced Maths (10-day course). Think about what your child needs most; up to two courses are possible.
How your child can get creative with their English skills
Our English course is ideal for children who love reading and creative writing or need encouragement to develop these interests. The highlight of the course is the creative writing exercises, where children start with intriguing story prompts in a variety of genres. There are many titles for children to choose from such as ‘The Tree House,’ ‘The Secret Passage,’ ‘The Ghost Train’ and ‘The Crazy House.’
The course teaches children how to structure stories and create engaging and memorable characters. Each story the children write is redrafted, and they are given detailed one-to-one feedback to improve their writing skills. This process sparks a child’s imagination and reinforces grammar, syntax, punctuation, vocabulary and spelling skills.
What our teachers and teaching team think
Our teachers and teaching team love reading the children’s stories. They are always amazed by the children’s creativity and find it incredibly rewarding to see their creative writing skills improve throughout the course. Every story is unique, and the guidance given helps each child develop their own writing style.
At the end of the course, the teachers enjoy giving the children their certificates for the children’s hard work for improving their writing skills.
Children’s creative achievement doesn’t stop at the end of the course
After completing the English course, your child might want to expand their storytelling abilities by adding illustrations and creating a little booklet, either by hand or put their computer skills to the test and create a digital version.
We actively encourage parents to get involved. Give your child the chance to showcase their stories with friends and family. This can be achieved by organising a storytelling occasion or sending their stories to friends and family. It’s important their achievement is marked so they can be proud of how far they have come and treasure their stories to look back on later in life.
Who can enrol on a Summer course?
Our Summer courses are open to existing AE Tuition children, and children who haven’t attended an AE Tuition course. Children range from school years 5 to 7. Our teachers and teaching team will give your child the support they need to improve their English and enhance their creative writing skills.
