About Josephine
I enjoy drawing out the inherent creativity in my students, spotting fresh new talent and encouraging submissions and taking their work to the next level. My students report greatly increased confidence in writing to deadline and reading to an audience.

Beginning with a thorough introduction to the origins of creativity, I take my students through highly focused and practical lessons in both poetry and fiction. They will also learn editing and preparing their work for submission and publication. Lessons include insta poetry, flash fiction, plotting the novel, characterisation, genre, formal poetic forms and more. Working creatively helps with students' understanding of English Literature, feeding into their more academic studies, increasing confidence in the classroom, and boosting their understanding of the construction of poetry and fiction.
Reviews
All the reviews collected from students are verified by our team. They are therefore reliable and correspond to a real experience with Josephine.
Perfect! Josephine is a superb teacher who can understand the aspirations and potential of the student, who can get to the level of the student, and help them on to the right path. She is highly knowledgeable and very enthusiastic about teaching creative writing, as well as being a well-regarded published author.
- Anil has an instinctive feeling for words that's translating from prompts into promising first tries at his own poems. Fairly rigid prompts are helpful to nervous students as they provide a jumping off place from which they find themselves flying before they quite realise their own talent. It's a pleasure to see this process working. Keep going, Anil. We are going to publish a pamphlet of his best work at the end of the course.Josephine's response :
