FAQ’s

• Our online writing classes include the following:
  • Access to our easy-to-use online learning platform
  • Weekly text lectures by the tutor
  • Course reading
  • Written feedback on your assignments from your tutor

  Depending on the class you take, there may also be an opportunity for discussion of a particular topic.

  The writing classes do not run in real time, so you do not have to be online at a particular time. New lessons become available each Tuesday but you can read the lesson and complete the assignment any time during the week. You will have seven days to complete the weekly assignment and submit your work for feedback.

  When a new week begins, you will still be able to access the lessons from the previous weeks.

An online class is flexible and allows you to participate at any time, from anywhere in the world.

You don’t need a lot of technical know-how to take a class. All you need is reliable internet access. Our classes are user-friendly and The Writing District team is available to help.

You’ll receive written feedback from your tutor once a week.

You don’t need previous writing experience or study to take our classes. We offer classes for writers of various levels, for beginners as well as writers with experience.

Fees must be paid in full before the class starts. If you need to withdraw from a class, please contact us at least one week before the class starts. We can then provide a refund, less a $25 administration fee.

If you withdraw from the class less than one week before the class starts, unfortunately, we cannot offer a refund.

If you wish to withdraw from a class, please email us at [email protected]. Informing a tutor does not constitute withdrawal.

The Writing District reserves the right to cancel classes due to low enrollment. If we cancel a class, students will receive a full refund.

There will be writing assignments to work on every week. Students can expect to spend two to three hours every week on the class.
