The variety of tasks was really helpful for the work I am going to be doing. I found the feedback really useful and practical. I think I have a better overview of how to write effective news and features, and really enjoyed the interview and headline tasks. Nathan was great at answering all the questions I had!

Trainer was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, and I liked the warm-up writing exercises that we did at the start. It was also good to have been given practical exercises to utilise the skills we were learning throughout the course, and even put them into practice for drafting the next issue of our own company magazine.

The course was excellent, I really enjoyed Helen's pace and style of teaching. She is very knowledgeable and what I really enjoyed was her friendly manner and interest in me as a person. We had a conversation at the beginning of the course on day two about my interests, plans and goals and this conversation was just as helpful to me as the course was.
