I love taking courses. I always have. Last year I took the Blogchatter creative writing course, and this year it’s the Internshala Creative Writing course. Writing creative nonfiction is fun. I do a lot of it.
But I want to learn storytelling better and write better stories. While teaching my daughter at home, I realized children like listening to stories. It’s easiest to make them understand morality, ethics, and honesty through stories. Not just by definition.
Adults, too, love their stories. Maybe not the Cinderella and the Prince ones, but stories we like. If I want to do a better job of educating, I need to learn storytelling better. That was my 2020 goal. Since then I have taken a total of four Creative writing courses and the Internshala Creative Writing course by Kulpreet Yadav is the best. I took courses by Ruskin Bond and Anita Nair through Unlu, now Mugafi and both were very interesting but lacked the depth that the Internsahla course had
All the time I have been blogging, I have learned. The best part of blogging for me is my personal learning curve while I help spread awareness.
That’s why when I found Mr. Kulpreet Yadav taking this course virtually, I quickly signed up.
In case you like doing courses, this one will make you happy.
The course is hosted by the online educational platform Internshala. It has videos as the primary course material with a few reading resources, plenty of practice quizzes, specific module assignments, and module quizzes to test your mettle.
You can only unlock the next levels, after taking the one-shot quizzes.
The assignments are peer-reviewed, and you have to review work by your peers at each level of assignment.Its also currently a Government Certified Course.
What does it cover?
Creative writing as a whole, Fiction, nonfiction, editing, publishing, scriptwriting, feature writing, advertisement, and modules make up the course. The videos are informative. Mr. Kulpreet Yadav is effective in his brevity.
The mock quizzes are very well structured and are educational.
The course curriculum is well thought out.
The main contest makes it fun. If you want to know about the contest check this.
What could be better?
I would love video transcripts. Sometimes the internet is slow, and videos tend to take time.
Maybe more details for authors choosing the self-publishing route through Kindle.
In Conclusion:
This is a must-take course if you want to write better. That’s the crux of it.
I am looking forward to applying what I learned. If you have taken Creative writing courses, do let me know in the comments below.
