Premium Virtual Edition | February, 2022

From the 1st to the 3rd of February, 2022, the EACWP launches its fourth Premium Virtual Edition of its European Course for Teachers of Creative Writing, involving three of our most expert European teachers. The sessions will be celebrated through Zoom. Worldwide participants are welcome to join us. Enrollments are already open until January, 27th, 2022

Teaching approaches to creative writing

General Guidelines

This Premium Virtual Edition will comprise three different workshops that will take place on Tuesday, 1st, Wednesday, 2nd and Thursday, 3rd of February from 17.00 to 19.00 (CET). As in the regular format of our Teachers Training Course, over these sessions, our EACWP teachers will share their different methodologies, approaches and experiences in the teaching of creative writing by offering a so called “auteur workshop” by performing and explaining their own ars pedagogica and didactics from both a theoretical and practical approach. All the working sessions will be focused on pedagogical training and guidelines to empower the participants to develop their own teaching interests and new possibilities.

Meeting your colleagues

On the 1st of February, worldwide participants are invited to join a colleagues meeting at 16.30 (half and hour before the first workshop starts) in order to give everyone the opportunity to introduce him/herself and to get to know the rest of the group members.

Additionally, on the 3rd of February, right after the last workshop, we will be delighted to replicate the feat as part of the course clousure.

Please, feel welcome and bring your drink!
