That’s where this course comes in. Whether you’re a practiced poet or looking to start writing your own poems, it will help you learn some of the technique and history behind poems, and give you a chance to get creative in a relaxed, friendly environment.
You’ll soon be putting pen to paper and producing poems in a whole range of formats and styles.
What do I need to join the course?
You don’t need any knowledge of poetry at all, just the enthusiasm to put pen to paper and have a go.
What do I need to provide for the first session?
You don’t need to bring anything, but you may bring your own notebook and pen if you prefer.
How will I be taught?
You will be taught in a small, friendly group by our enthusiastic and experienced tutor. You will take part in some discussions and work independently to produce your poetry, which you can share with the group in each session.
What will I learn?
You will learn about syllables and rhyming and how to write rhyming couplets, limericks and haikus.
You will also learn about structuring and editing your work, as well as how to present it.
What could I do next?
You can progress to the next step of the course, which is Developing poetry. You may be interested in other creative courses, such as creative writing, photography or speaking confidently in public. You may also be interested in gaining qualifications in English, maths or ICT.
