Spread the Word Developing Tutors Programme
Deadline: Tue 30 Apr 2024
Spread the Word is expanding its Developing Tutors programme to offer London-based writers a paid opportunity to teach their first creative writing workshop.
Originally run for alumni of the London Writers Awards programme, Developing Tutors created a space for writers to develop their teaching skills with feedback and support from Spread the Word throughout the process. In 2024-25 we are looking to run up to seven workshops starting in June 2024 with the final one in February 2025.
The programme is open to applications from London-based writers who meet the following criteria:
Aged 18+;
Full-time London resident;
Has had some creative work published, but not necessarily a full-length project;
Writing fiction or non-fiction prose;
Has not previously taught a creative writing workshop;
From one or more of these backgrounds underrepresented in UK publishing: Black, Asian and Global Majority; deaf and disabled, LGBTQIA+, from a lower socio-economic background, working class upbringing.
Tutors will be paid £250 for a two-hour creative writing workshop. This is inclusive of planning time and a follow up short evaluation. If successful, our goal is to offer further opportunities to the tutors.
