Common Room

Common Room is an online platform that offers fun and engaging creative writing courses and resources for children of ages 7 to 15.

Traditionally, a common room is a shared lounge, often attached to dorm rooms in boarding schools, where students socialize, have late-night study sessions, host house parties and engage in other after-school activities. Drawing inspiration from this much-loved space, Common Room is an initiative to create a shared virtual learning space for young learners, to engage in magical learning experiences.

This workshop is delivered by Miss Shikha.

Shikha is a Cambridge certified Teacher of English, with over 7 years of experience teaching students in India and Japan.
