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 socialise, 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.

The Martian Holiday course is delivered by Miss Vaijayanthi.

Vaijayanthi is a Cambridge Certified Teacher of English with experience teaching students from India and the UAE. She has delivered training to students of all age groups through her time at The Hindu.

In addition to her Cambridge CELTA certification, Vaijayanthi is also a Licensed Teacher in the UAE, the process of which has helped her gain insight on the learning needs of students of different nationalities.

She has joined Common Room to help children develop essential writing skills beyond their classrooms.
