Learning Online
The days of sitting in a classroom are far behind us. With the Internet so very present in everything we do, it’s no wonder online learning has exploded in popularity over the past years.
Winghill Writing School isn’t just any run-of-the-mill online school. We’ve been around since 1984 and our track record speaks for itself. Starting out as a correspondence school, we’ve expanded and evolved and now offer students all over the world a fully interactive online learning experience. We offer seven distinct online writing courses, taught by three wonderful tutors—all professional writers and authors who guide you every step of the way.
Your Course Begins
When you enroll in one of our courses, we’ll quickly courier your course materials to you. This package includes your first set of lessons and assignments, as well as valuable reference books, software, CDs, and movies on DVDs.
When you start, your first task is simple: tell us more about yourself. For your first written assignment, you are asked to complete a personal profile. Take this opportunity to give us a detailed portrait of who you are: your background, experiences, goals, what you hope to gain from the course, and any other insights you wish to share.
Based on this information, we match you with the personal tutor who is best suited to your personality and goals. We send you your tutor’s name and a detailed letter outlining his or her career expertise and background. Your tutor serves as your mentor throughout the course, providing you with the individual help and guidance you need to excel.
Work Through Your Assignments
In the comfort of your own home and at your own pace, you work through your assignments one unit at a time. You submit your assignments by uploading your work to our user-friendly online student center. Your tutor reviews each piece and sends back expert analysis and marketing advice.
You consider your tutor’s advice and make any necessary changes. Even at this early stage you may be submitting pieces for publication. Lots of students achieve success with their first assignment.
