Schools
Elissa runs creative writing workshops for senior high school students. She can tailor the workshop to the class unit. She believes that people learn best when they have a go, and the workshops are designed with practical exercises in writing.
"Our teachers always notice a marked improvement in students' creative writing after we have invited Elissa Moss to teach a workshop at our school. She tailors her content to students' individual needs and the curriculum to provide high quality instruction. Elissa's sessions are imaginative, engaging and relevant to our students because of her understanding of teenagers and young adult fiction. Her workshops focus on practical application of skills that allow time for students to analyse good writing and edit their own work. She also provides excellent resources that our teachers can then continue to refer to throughout our short story unit. I highly recommend Elissa as a guest speaker."
