In just 1 day, learn how to write your highest graded essay and be supported over 5 weeks as you plan, write and edit your next epic submission.

The whole training day will be recorded and the videos will be uploaded by the Sunday morning (and then you'll have lifetime access to them after that). Yes, the training day is a key part of the programme but it would definitely be possible to achieve the same results by catching up with the recordings. Studying at your own pace may also work if you prefer to pause the videos or take breaks in between the sessions to action the strategies.

If you can't make the live training then I would recommend blocking out some time in your diary to catch up within the first week, so that you make the most of the 5 weeks of support to WORK on your essay and implement all your snazzy new strategies.

The training itself will consist of 6 hours of interactive, AWESOME learning. Depending on how you learn best this can be done all in one go, live, on Saturday 25th November. Or you could break it down and watch the trainings at your own pace (and you'll always have access to them).

Invest this time now to save a boatload of time in all your future essays (and achieve much higher marks). Then engage with the 5 weeks of support however you want.

Come along to the virtual study sessions for accountability as you work on your essay. Ask questions in the group when you want my expert advice.

You pay a hugeee amount in university fees already so I get that you may be hesitant to invest more. However, this programme is the one investment you’ll make that will *actually* help you graduate with your dream grades.

Your university provides you with the course material…but that doesn’t guarantee great grades. Just like owning an expensive car doesn’t mean you know how to drive. You need to learn and that’s exactly what this programme will do – making your hefty time and financial investment in returning to study actually worth it.

Nope. I don't need to be an expert in your subject-matter because I'm a study skills expert and certified mindset coach. I am not a tutor or lecturer who will teach you the content of your course. I am a study skills trainer who will teach you the strategies and mindset shifts you need to improve how you study, so you can get better grades forever. This means I can help any and all adult learners studying any subject where you have to write academic essays. I’ve worked with 100s of students all over the world studying every subject imaginable.

In this programme, you’ll learn the five core elements of writing a better essay and the process I recommend students follow to plan, write and edit an epic essay. It might be that you hate planning because you’ve not found a way that works for you yet, or that you find understanding your essay task and guidance tricky so planning feels impossible. Or it might genuinely be that making a quick plan and diving in works for you. If so, then I’ll teach you how to best capitalise on this approach.

Learn my recommended techniques during the one-day training and then over the five weeks we’ll co-create an essay writing process that works for your subject, learning needs and style.

Not all students want to aim for a First-class degree, maybe because they need a lower classification to move forward in their studies/career, or they’re studying more for interest than career progression. Other students may not want to achieve a First, but under the surface they really do but they just don’t think it’s possible.

Whatever your situation – learning how to write a First-class essay *is* the answer. Because a First-class essay *is* the right essay. Writing in a First-class way *is* the most efficient and effective method. In this programme you’ll learn exactly how to write a First-class essay. You then get to decide how far you take the advice. 

I’ve taught these techniques to students in the first module of an undergraduate degree and students in the final term of their postgraduate qualifications. Because essay writing is never taught systematically, many, MANY students have fundamental gaps and inefficiencies in their skills and process – even students who’ve successfully made it to Masters-level.

Use the one-day training to hone your skills and then the five-weeks of support to get personalised support and advice on any writing areas specific to your course, situation and goals.

While the essay strategies I teach will help you write other types of assignments, there will not be specific advice for them in the training e.g. reports, group projects, presentations, reflective pieces, research projects.

You will learn A LOT in WBEL to help you with all academic (and professional) writing but feel free to reach out to me (see the last FAQ) if you want to chat about using WBEL to support you with a non-essay assignment.

Yes and no.

You *can* join if you’re working on your dissertation, but I will not be teaching specifically how to write dissertation/thesis-specific sections such as a proposal, methodology, literature review…etc.

You will be able to apply the training to planning, writing and perfecting your arguments, mapping out your writing process, critical thinking, clear and concise writing, proofreading and reviewing, referencing and more.

During the 5 weeks of support, you will NOT be able to use the personal plan review to get a full review of your entire dissertation plan. Instead, you could submit a plan of one of the sections.

Feel free to reach out to me (see the last FAQ) if you want to chat about using WBEL to support you with a dissertation.

For starters, your tutor or lecturer is not paid to teach you *how* to write a great essay or achieve top marks in each assessment. In self-study courses, they’re paid to mark your work, provide some feedback and answer brief questions or grant you extensions if needed. In taught courses, they’re paid to do this as well as teach you some/all of the material. Yes, you may get some useful advice from your university but, ultimately, it’s on you to figure out how to actually graduate with grades you’re happy with. That’s where I come in.

In this programme, you will get my *full* support for five-weeks. I’ll answer any and all your essay writing questions; you’ll get to submit your essay breakdown and plan to me for personalised feedback; you’ll get to work on your essay alongside me and your fellow students; and you’ll get my one-on-one guidance on parts of your essay during these sessions. No more vague, patronising or condescending ‘advice’ from your tutor to just reread the guidance again. You’ll get expert, empathetic coaching and guidance exactly when you need it. 

I won't be running this programme live again until sometime in 2024 so if you want to write better essays TODAY and you have an essay that you can work on over the next 1-2 months then I would highly recommend joining this round.

While WBEL is designed to help students studying any course or subject, I get that you may want to check whether it would work for your specific situation.
