This programme invites young writers to sharpen their storytelling skills while exploring the power of narrative across cultures. Students delve into a wide array of genres, from short fiction and poetry to travel writing and memoir, examining how stories shape societies and express the complexities of human experience. Guided by published authors and expert tutors, participants refine their voice, structure their ideas, and learn to write with authenticity and flair.
More than a writing course, this experience fosters cultural sensitivity and global awareness through literature. Students read and respond to global voices, craft original pieces, and receive personalised feedback in workshops and one-on-one mentoring sessions. The result is a refined portfolio and a deeper understanding of how writing can inform, inspire, and transform.

Every single day felt special. There wasn’t a dull moment, one day we were dissecting real business cases, the next we were exploring a historic museum, and by evening, dining in the grandest halls I’ve ever seen.
I didn’t expect to love learning this much. I came for the experience, but left completely inspired. The tutors made every session exciting, and I found myself actually looking forward to the next seminar.
We were from everywhere, but felt like one group. I met people from four continents in my first week. We had different backgrounds but the same drive , learning together, debating over dinner, and laughing until late
There’s something powerful about being in those buildings. It’s not just about prestige, it makes you feel like you belong to something bigger. I still can’t believe I studied where Nobel winners once walked.
I used to sit at the back and stay quiet. At Quintus, I started asking questions, sharing ideas, even presenting to a room full of students. It changed me. If I were to sum the experience up, I'd say I found my voice here.
