This article is written by Twin Mama, the mother of a pair of adorable twins, and a student of the 13th “Vista Writing Companion Program”. Thanks for authorizing the reprint!
你有多久没有上过写作课了?至于我,距离上次提笔是何时?已经遥远的想不起。 Because I participated in the three-month “Vista Writing Companion Program”, I rediscovered my passion for writing.
At first, I thought I was going to learn a teacher’s writing framework: I imagined that the teacher would use his writing logic to shape me into another person; whether it was his writing style or his taste, I would imitate his style by copying.但是,开始上课之后却让我改观! There must be a model, but he taught me to be myself. He really used his companionship to help me step by step become the person I want to be.
什么是「Vista写作陪伴计画」?
This is a class that anyone can take as long as it has something to do with writing.
包罗万象的教学内容
Teacher Vista once shared the original intention of setting up this course. In fact, at the beginning, he wanted to accompany people who were interested in writing but didn’t know how to write. But what is interesting is that the subsequent development was beyond expectations. Although there are more and more students, there are not many people who simply want to learn writing. In other words, some students signed up to improve their communication and presentation skills in the workplace, and some came to study to write company plans; in addition, with the rise of [personal branding] (https://copywriting.vista.tw/personal-brand-positioning/) in recent years, more people want to learn how to operate self-media and social marketing…
Therefore, no matter what you want to learn, as long as it is related to writing, the “Vista Writing Companion Program” can help you realize your dream.
CALL as you please 24 hours a day
The “Vista Writing Companion Program” uses online teaching methods. Teachers will use closed online communities to learn and share online with current students. Sometimes everyone’s time happens to fit in, and an online meeting will be held randomly to discuss questions for everyone to ask in a timely manner for Teacher Vista to answer.
During the three months I was taking classes, Teacher Vista would post a piece of information related to students to the LINE group from time to time every day. Most of the time, Teacher Vista waits silently, waiting for you to ask questions, waiting for you to write the article for him to read…
Once, I sent an article I typed at 1:30 in the morning, and he immediately corrected my homework. I was a little surprised at his speed. However, teachers are not machines, they are human beings who also need to rest. Although we can throw out questions at any time 24 hours a day, waiting in a timely manner is also necessary.
After taking the “Vista Writing Companion Program” course, I learned…
I entered this course in January 2022 and really learned a lot. Even if I have any questions after the course, as long as I am willing to ask them, Teacher Vista will answer me enthusiastically.
在学习的过程里我学会……
I forgot all the punctuation marks and he helped me find them.
After leaving school, I always feel that writing ability is no longer so important, and I often don’t even bother to mark punctuation marks. As time goes by, I don’t care much about which symbols should be used where. Anyway, I am still living well.
纠正错字连篇的文章
As adults, I cannot spend time on writing skills. Most of the time I use a keyboard to type. Occasionally I need to use a pen to write, and I often forget how to write a word!
Even typos and [punctuation marks](https://www.books.com.tw/products/0010801802?utm_source=vista&utm_medium=ap-books&utm_content=recomme nd&utm_campaign=ap-202207&fbclid=IwAR0rR8vxHQAGDGysRL29oiMiSli5IGFkQOrXRzHJukO-ByyCUSgmaJ14N7w), Teacher Vista helped me correct it. In just three months, I went from forgetting how to use punctuation marks correctly to finally getting some feel for it; I went from having as many as 20 typos in one article to almost zero.
逐步为我建构概念
The reason why I want to seek help from Vista teachers mainly comes from my need to write a blog and build a personal brand. At first, I just kept writing enthusiastically. I would follow the popular topics that other people wrote about.我只知道要努力,但是该如何努力?还有,努力的尽头会带我去哪里?嗯,这些我完全没有思考过。
Teacher Vista guided me to think about business strategies and led me to explore what my ultimate goal is. And it made me realize that readers only care about the first-place article, and it doesn’t matter who the second or third place is. When I was younger, my friends said that my singing voice was like Zhou Hui’s. After deliberate practice, I sang more like her!
Teacher Vista taught me: “I don’t have to be second to Zhou Hui.” Find out your own characteristics and use them well. There will definitely be a stage of my own, and there will definitely be people who like twinmama.
最后,Vista老师教会我学习等待。
I am a very impatient person, especially after having children. In a lifestyle where time is scarce, I am used to quick fixes. After I finish writing an article, I can’t wait to send it to the teacher. The teacher always scolded me: “Didn’t you read it over yourself first? Didn’t you notice there were so many typos?”
So I spent a lot of effort to change the matter of waiting. I will no longer type an article for two or three hours and insist on handing in the results even though I am very tired. I have learned to wait for myself to review it again when I am in better condition.
My future outlook
At the end of the course, the teacher encouraged me: continue to follow these steps, and then I can slowly add the services I want to provide. Hearing this sentence, I was at a loss. I only knew that I kept working hard. What should my service (purpose) be? It turns out that I have no idea what the end of my efforts will be?
At first, I felt that I just started running and creating blogs because I heard that blogs could make money. But should I have a vision besides just making money?
Later, I decided to get back to the original intention that I didn’t implement because I found it difficult.现在,我想进一步实践。是的,我想要好好来写商业文案! It would be wonderful if words could be put into different clothes so that they could give life to a product, a project, a story or even an invitation…
Thank you Teacher Vista for accompanying me through this journey. Because of the teachings he once gave me, I believed that I could become the person I wanted to be.
