About Brad
Hello, I’m a creative writer who loves to share my passion and knowledge with others. I have published a short story in a horror writing contest and I specialize in environmental storytelling and worldbuilding. I have also been teaching creative writing for over a year, helping students of all levels and backgrounds improve their skills and express themselves.
I believe that creative writing is not only a form of art, but also a way of learning, communicating, and exploring. That’s why I design my lessons to be fun, interactive, and personalized, according to your goals, interests, and learning style. Whether you want to write fiction, poetry, screenplay, or anything else, I can help you achieve your creative potential.
As your tutor, I will provide you with constructive feedback, guidance, and support throughout the creative process. I will also expose you to a variety of sources and resources for creative writing, such as books, websites, podcasts, and contests. My aim is to inspire you to write widely and passionately, and to enjoy the journey.
If you are looking for a tutor who is friendly, enthusiastic, and experienced, then you have come to the right place. I look forward to working with you and helping you unleash your imagination and craft engaging stories in any genre.

As a creative writer who has published a short story in horror writing and specializes in environmental storytelling and worldbuilding, I can help you unleash your imagination and craft engaging stories in any genre. My approach as a tutor is to:
Teach with examples. I will show you how to analyze and learn from different forms of creative writing, such as fiction, poetry, screenplay, and more. I will also provide you with feedback and suggestions on your own writing.
Encourage brainstorming and experimentation. I will help you generate original and diverse ideas for your stories, using prompts, images, scenarios, and questions. I will also challenge you to try new techniques, styles, and perspectives, and to break the rules when necessary.
Guide you through the creative process. I will help you plan, draft, revise, and edit your stories, using a method that covers everything from picking a form, writing from life or prompts, setting the tone, showing instead of telling, setting the pace, and practicing over perfection.
Inspire you to write widely and passionately. I will expose you to a variety of sources and resources for creative writing, such as books, websites, podcasts, and contests. I will also motivate you to write regularly, share your work, and enjoy the journey.
My typical lesson plan consists of:
A warm-up activity to get you in the mood for writing and to review the previous lesson’s content.
A mini-lesson on a specific topic or skill related to creative writing, such as character development, dialogue, plot structure, etc.
A guided practice where you apply what you learned to a writing task, such as a short story, a poem, a scene, etc.
A peer review where you exchange feedback with another student or with me.
A reflection where you evaluate your progress and set goals for the next lesson.
What sets me apart as a tutor is:
My passion and enthusiasm for creative writing and teaching. I love writing stories and I love helping others discover and develop their own voice and vision.
My experience and expertise in creative writing and environmental storytelling and worldbuilding. I have published a short story in a horror writing contest and I have created immersive and detailed worlds for my own stories and games such as Dungeons and Dragons.
My flexibility and adaptability to your needs and preferences. I can tailor my lessons to your level, goals, interests, and learning style. I can also adjust the pace, content, and format of the lessons according to your feedback and performance.
My lessons are for:
Anyone who wants to learn or improve their creative writing skills, whether for personal or professional purposes.
Anyone who is interested in creative writing and/or environmental storytelling and worldbuilding, or who wants to explore other genres and forms of creative writing.
Anyone who is looking for a fun, interactive, and supportive learning environment, where they can express themselves freely and creatively.
