These courses are not restricted to people with particular qualifications or experience. The only pre-requisite is a sound working knowledge of written English. Upon enrolment you will be allocated a tutor (all of our tutors are working in the field they teach) who will mark and critique your work on an individual basis.

The aim of your tutor is to ensure that you reach the highest standard of which you are capable - this may mean regular publication in a national newspaper, a published short story, a novel - or perhaps that you finish the course having become a more competent and confident communicator in written English, which is, in itself, a very worthwhile achievement.
