【Aiden in English】 Writing is an art, that requires years to understand. I have just begun discovering the inner workings of the English language myself, gradually scraping together experience from my surroundings. Recently, my mother approached me with a job at the local Guanghua Chinese School. It is a common mention in my posts due to various activities involving this non-profit organization.
The job, a teaching spot for English writing, as of this moment, is officially a green light. All the paperwork, signatures, and interviews, which are all a bunch of complex terms to make the process sound tedious, have been passed without issues.
The basis is for young writers to learn skills and tips for writing outside of what is expected at school. Items such as certain figurative skills besides the basic sets will be taught in class, including foreshadowing, extended metaphors, and symbolism.
Editing will become another key component in the writing class. I think it is such an underrated skill. The ability to go back and refine ideas is a mindset needed for many moments in life. Even if editing is not appealing to the writer, the skill is very useful in other areas of life.
I do not really have much to say about the requirements of a teacher. Other than being in the fourth grade or above, there are not many prerequisites. I understand if this post is not serving any purpose outside of commercializing my class, but it is here nevertheless.

眼下我如愿以偿,学校正式同意我出任英文写作老师,从准备材料、整理文字到现场面试整个过程复杂费神,一切进步全都来之不易。
这门课旨在帮助年轻写手掌握写作技能,学到课本以外的知识,除了基础训练,课堂上还要讲述一些比喻修辞,包括伏笔、延伸隐喻和象征手法。
编辑将成为写作课的另外一个重点,我觉得它常被忽视,但生活中很多时候人们都需回过头来重新审视自己,哪怕编辑对笔者毫无乐趣可言,不过这种技能在其它领域非常受用。 身为任课老师,我真没有太多要求,凡是四年级或四年级以上的适龄学生均可报名参加。想必这份招生启事只是为我所教的写作班代做宣传广告,别无目的。
