As an associate with Endersby Training, I ran a couple of 90-minute Brilliant Writing ‘taster’ workshops at a large college of further education in London. Around 40 tutors and administrative support staff – with a wide range of writing skills and many having English as a second language - signed up to sample my training.
Using a series of hands-on exercises and pairing people together, I had them writing in Plain English, understanding how to summarise information, planning and structuring their writing and, finally, editing to completion.
It was a short but sweet introduction to some important writing skills.
