THE CHance for young people to become a published author
Welcome to The Young Authors' Launchpad
Has your child ever wanted to become a published author but didn't know where to start? We take your child's interests and passion for writing and support them all the way to getting published. We allow imagination to blossom and give your child an exciting reason to write. This is a very different experience than writing at school, away from the restraints of the curriculum.
Nonetheless, we are qualified educators with knowledge of the curriculum and will support young people with their individual targets, to develop their skill in writing.
We have experience of working with a range of young people, between the ages of 7-18 years, of all levels and abilities, as well as those with additional needs.
Available for online sessions or face to face in North Lincolnshire.
Price:
£250 for seven 1-hour sessions
£36 for an individual, 1-hour session

Dan Vockins
I'm Dan Vockins and have been an educator since 2012. I have worked in schools and tutor a variety of young people. I am passionate about supporting others to develop themselves. I believe this project is a fantastic way to inspire a new generation of writers and gives the young person a real reason to write, rather than just being told do so at school. I have seen how powerful this project can be with young people already selling their books online. I pride myself on building good relationships with the young people I support and ensure I listen to them well, creating bespoke learning opportunities which match their needs.
Learn to write books and become a published author with the young authors' launchpad. Available online or face to face in the Doncaster and Scunthorpe areas.

Donna Ford
Hi, I’m Donna Ford. I have worked in education since 2012, taking on several teaching and pastoral roles. I have a degree in English and History, a Postgraduate Certificate in Education, a Psychometric testing qualification and I am currently working on achieving my Masters degree in Supporting young people with SEND. I am an experienced English Language and Creative Writing teacher with 5+ years’ insight of supporting those with additional needs. I strongly believe that creative writing, reading and the development of language is integral to the academic success and wellbeing of young people. I believe that this should be something that excites and inspires, which can be challenging in the confines of the classroom. I am so excited about the possibilities that The Young Authors' Launchpad offers to young people, allowing them to realise their potential and create something that they can be proud of for years to come.
