 Recommendations

““Grace's feature writing workshops inspired many of our students to find their voice. They learned how to write creatively and with authority whilst Grace's generous feedback was more like personal mentoring."

— Ian Bucknell, Programme Leader BA Journalism, The University of Leeds

““Grace hosted very inspiring workshops which were engaging and really helped the students to understand what magazine journalism involves in industry. We look forward to working with her again in the future as she has great ideas for workshops which are valuable for our learners.”

— Sarah Robinson, Programme Manager Media and Journalism, Leeds City College

“Grace completely surpassed my expectations in delivering a features writing workshop to a team of marketing and communications staff at the University. She was engaged, attune to the specific needs of our group, and full of practical tips to improve our approach to writing. ​Her talk has already had a noticeable impact on our team. Many of them have written feature articles for our website and continue to employ the tips she gave us. I would wholeheartedly recommend Grace to bring a fresh and professional perspective to communications. ​”

— Katie Pruszynski, Faculty of Social Science, University of Sheffield
