Creative writing: Creating self-confidence

Abstract

Developing teenage students’ self-confidence could be difficult. Their age, likes, beliefs, attitudes, and perceptions are constant obstacles to learning a new language, even more, if they do not feel comfortable in their classroom. This article reflects on the implementation of creative writing and how other aspects as critical thinking, development of language skills, motivation, among others, can be improved while focusing on writing in a “funny way” based on the information gathered through different researches and personal teaching experience.
