Back to the list

Why did you decide to enrol on the course?

Because I’m already a qualified graphic designer in the industry for 13 yrs and as I emigrated to Palma de Mallorca I wanted to provide a service of being able to write copy for my clients as well as design.


Did you make any contact with the Institute before enrolling?

Yes, I sent a few emails enquiring about things.


What was your impression of your course when it arrived?

At first glance I was a bit overwhelmed and wondered if it would be worth the money. So far with the contact from my tutor I realised I would get a lot of support and help from friendly and genuinely interested people who actually know what they are talking about.


Did you consider any other courses?

Did try a London University but they didn't do an online copywriting course only book writing courses. I searched the internet and nobody else had a copywriting online course.


Ultimately, what do you want to do?

I am trying to get my design business going in Mallorca and wanted to be able to provide copy for brochures that I may design etc. Also to earn extra money writing for people in the UK or USA.


How are you progressing with your course?

I started off really well but work and other commitments has slowed me back by about 2mths. I am just getting myself back into it again.


What might you say to someone who was thinking of enrolling on the course?

Depending upon what they are wanting to achieve I would definitely recommend it. Although I am only on the 2nd module I think it’s a good course, coming from that background anyway the course and information in it seems to be correct and informative.


Is there anything else you'd like to add?

Its just refreshing to actually learn something again that I’m interested in and the course is simple and easy to follow and very enjoyable to work through.

I just hope I can actually write by the end of it!
