Student feedback on The Story Maker Motivator lessons:
"You have taught me to describe things in powerful words instead of boring words. You have also taught me when you describe something then link it with other things to make my writing interesting. I have enjoyed many lessons with you like the role play. All your hard work and effort has made a big impact on me and inspired me to write stories." – Sintan, Year 7
"I enjoyed it when we were describing a haunted house and we turned off the lights and all we had was a candle! I was scared myself. I got so many ideas for my spooky story description. I had so many ideas I wrote 2 pages instead of 1 paragraph." – Julia, Year 7
"Thank you for all of our lessons. They were all an interesting and new experience. I especially enjoyed the treasure chest and the last spooky house lesson, although I enjoyed all of the lessons – your lessons were inspiring and I wrote well after." – Noah, Year 7
"I found your workshop very inspiring. It really helped me to write more easily and made writing more enjoyable for me. The sheets with all the words and their basic meanings (happy, sad, angry) were really useful as it helped me use a wider variety of words correctly. The objects were especially inspiring, they really made me think and form stories around them. Thank you so much I have been inspired by your methods and I really enjoy writing now." – Hester, Year 9
"What I really enjoyed doing was the worksheet on beginnings and cliff-hangers. I’ve always liked writing stories but sometimes I always find it hard to grab the reader’s attention and make them want to read more and now, using your technique, I can really see my story writing improving. Another thing which I also found really helpful was the sheets on feelings which give you loads of different words which meant the same thing. Because I haven’t really got a wide vocabulary so instead of using words like reticent, reserved, coy etc., I’d usually just write shy or nervous." – Sumaya, Year 9
"Thank you very much for coming into our class and teaching us about writing creatively. I learnt so much and it gave me inspiration to start writing stories. Your methods helped me to spark up ideas for all the different sections of the stories that you helped us on. All of the different tasks were interesting for me because it gave me an idea of all the different aspects that a story needs." – Joe, Year 9
