Academic Writing

Academic writing at postgraduate level can feel challenging, especially if you're new to studying at this level or in the UK. To help ease this transition, we've designed a series of supportive sessions to support your academic journey in the WBS Community.

In Term 1 we provide 8 mandatory academic writing sessions. These run in weeks 3-10 and are delivered online. These sessions will be displayed on your timetable.

We also have the Academic Practice Skills Resource which provides lots of valuable resources you can review in your own time.

Hear from previous students

"Janet’s teaching has not only helped me achieve a good grade on my assignment but has also deepened my understanding of the subject, which will have a lasting impact on my future studies."

"I strongly encourage anyone looking to improve their writing (regardless of your current level) to participate in Janet’s sessions! I promise you’ll notice a difference in your writing after just the first session."

Academic Writing Surgeries
