- Our courses for adults, children and teenagers are carried out via email and all you need is internet access.
- You do not have to be online at any particular time or day.
- Having enrolled on the course, the student will gain access to the first set of course materials on the start date.
- An experienced tutor and writer will coach the student throughout the course with weekly writing tasks and assignments.
- The student completes the assignment(s) by the agreed time (usually one week) and receives detailed, written feedback. They will then gain access to the next module.
- The process repeats.
- Tasks may be writing exercises, or they may be based directly on the student’s work, for example, suggestions as to how to rework a passage.
