How to improve narrative and descriptive writing?

by Michael Hartland

NARRATIVE AND DESCRIPTIVE WRITING are both examined at GCSE and above. As an English tutor I am always being asked to help students improve in these areas, whether it's for primary school tuition, 11+, preparation for GCSE, GCSE itself, and for English at A Level and beyond.

My ebook “But I’m no good at creative writing” was written to help students succeed, and I use material from it regularly in my online tutoring.  You can even read an eleven chapter mini-novel that one of my teenage students wrote, inspired by this teaching, here.

Often students don’t know simple structures to write descriptively or to frame a short piece of narrative writing.  My ebook, and my tuition, address these issues through easy-to-learn guidance.  Without fail, students feel much more confident once they have a framework, and they are then set free to let their ideas flow!
