Writing Courses from Launch Point

 
Find out more about how our courses work by exploring these commonly asked questions:

Why home study?

Distance learning is an effective, flexible way to learn. It means that you study at a distance from your tutor rather than in a classroom. You work through course materials written by specialists and send your assignments to an expert personal tutor for feedback on your work. You can also contact your tutor at any stage if you need additional help or advice.

Most students enjoy working through their learning materials and assignments. You'll work through carefully structured modules with defined learning objectives, and try out activities to practice your skills. Each course has a set number of assignments. The course materials give full guidance on how to prepare and complete each one.

How much time will I need?

This will depend partly on the course you choose, but it also depends on how much time you can spend on your studies. The advantage of our courses is that you can study at your own pace and in your own time. There are no deadlines. You have up to 12 months to complete your course although most students complete their studies much more quickly than this.

What is included in the course fee?

The course fee includes everything you need to complete your course: complete study material, delivered direct to your inbox, and full tutorial support.

 

As soon as you book your course your course materials will be delivered to your inbox so you can get started right away. You will also receive contact details for your personal tutor. 

Where can I study?

You can study at home, on the train or the bus, at work - wherever you please. There are no fixed classes to attend. Launch Point comes to you, so you can decide where and when to study.

How much will it cost?

The fees for each course are listed after the course description.

Your course fee includes:

  •  your course materials, which are yours to keep;

  • individual tuition for the duration of your studies;

  • e-mail and telephone support from your personal tutor;

  • general support and guidance from Launch Point advisers.
Our Tutors

All of our tutors are successful professional writers with subject expertise and up-to-date industry knowledge, so they can give you the highest level of support. They'll give helpful advice and encouraging feedback on your work so you can progress quickly. You can arrange a tutor call-back at any time simply by e-mailing one of our advisers. This includes evenings and weekends, allowing you to deal with any problems or questions quickly.
