Storytelling Platform

A self-paced path to finding, shaping, and telling the stories that matter.

The Revision Learning Storytelling Platform brings together StoryBuilder, Daily Story prompts, and self-paced courses, plus access to live workshops and 1:1 coaching, all in one place. Start free and build at your own pace.

What it is

A structured, self-paced approach to storytelling that works across contexts.

Built around the Moments Method® — the same framework used in every Revision Learning workshop, coaching session, and program.

The Revision Learning Storytelling Platform is a self-paced tool for high school students and professionals. Use it to brainstorm, draft, and refine the stories that matter most — for college essays, job interviews, networking, and beyond.

Because the platform is guided and intentionally structured, you can move through your work independently while staying grounded in the same framework taught in our live workshops and coaching. Parents and educators can trust that students are working within a thoughtful, intentional process.

What's included

Core tools, plus everything you need to go deeper.

Students can start using the Revision Learning Storytelling Platform for free to explore prompts, capture ideas, and begin shaping meaningful stories. As your goals evolve, additional support and structure are available through upgraded access.

StoryBuilder

Craft and edit stories from beginning to end

A writing tool that helps you identify potential stories, think through a clear beginning, middle, and end, and revise drafts over time. Using the five steps of the Moments Method® — Find Stories, Focus In, Tell It Out Loud, Map It, and Focus Out — you brainstorm, draft, organize, and refine stories in a structured, intentional way.

Daily Story

Generate new story ideas through changing prompts

A new prompt every day to encourage reflection on different moments, experiences, and themes. Generate a new prompt anytime if you want to explore a different direction, while still being able to return to the original daily prompt when needed.

Self-Paced Courses

Learn core storytelling principles and apply them across contexts

17 courses covering general storytelling, college admissions, and career success — with interactive videos and quizzes. Learn at your own pace and apply concepts directly to your own stories. The free account includes 2 courses; upgrade for the full library.

Additional guided support

For students and professionals who want more support, the platform also provides access to live workshops and 1:1 coaching. Everything happens in one place.

Workshops

Live storytelling workshops accessed directly through the platform. Links appear in your account before each session, and recordings are available afterward so you can revisit the material and reinforce your learning.
