What’s it like to learn with AWC?

The specificity of the course and ability to apply immediately in a work setting was greatly appreciated.

The tutor was positive with effective and meaningful feedback.

It is great to get into a short course program with broadly recognised quality of delivery to kickstart growth in writing skills.

This was an excellent comprehensive course to build a strong beginning foundation in email copywriting/marketing.

Bernadette was an excellent tutor. She has the knowledge and experience to zone in on the important areas for analysis, and you learn as much from her critiques of your classmates' work as you do your own.

I enjoyed how modular the course was, focusing on specific themes and learning how to integrate and build upon them as we progressed. The content was accessible, informative, and very practical.

If you're looking for a comprehensive course to understand both email copywriting and email marketing, I highly recommend the AWC course.

Bernadette was amazing, gave great real-works examples and made learning technical stuff fun!

I enjoyed the variety of information covered; it was very comprehensive.

It gave me the confidence to pursue more email marketing work.

Nicole's tutelage was above my expectations. I really like how many examples she used that we could relate to. The idea of writing a whole novel is very daunting and seems too big to attempt but, through her own experience and explaining the process, it now seems more attainable and certainly something to try without being too self-critical.

I now look at writing as something to chip away at, to allow myself the freedom to pursue without pressure and you never know! Maybe I could be good at it.

Bernadette was very well spoken and had a great sense of humour which made the lessons enjoyable. She was clear and concise and the handouts were thorough. I will be printing them all out to refer to in the future. Bernadette was very professional and clearly very knowledgeable.

The assignments were fun and the information was very common sense and relatable unlike some courses which rabbit on about theoretical ideas.

I have a clearer idea of the profession and the notes will make it easy for me to refer back to things. I feel more confident in pursuing copywriting as a job.

The course content was very informative, the tutor was very professional and likeable and the time investment was easy to manage into my life.

Thanks for everything and I hope to return to add another course under my belt soon.

I have entered into an adventurous world of word power to influence and bring attention to products / services.

Mark is encouraging and gives detailed feedback of each student's write-ups, highlighting certain good or great lines. I have more confidence in how to phrase headlines and respectful of word count.

All the lectures are well-presented and easy to follow. Having weekly feedback from Mark and seeing other classmates' high standard of work made the entire learning experience fun and enjoyable.

Excellent material and structure to the course. Love the templates and guided questions for potential clients.

If you wish to establish a career in copywriting, do all the courses at AWC. Every module is jam-packed with information to help even a newbie get started. Looking forward to the feedback weekly is the fun part of this course. Thank you to all the tutors and staff at AWC!

Thank you for the Bonus material at the end!

It's great having experienced authors as tutors and audios you can listen to in the car over and over - like Audible. Makes it time efficient.

The tutor was really encouraging, professional and constructive. I trusted her. Her comments made sense and gave unexpected insight into things I hadn't considered.

Having feedback from the tutor was paramount. Having deadlines kept me motivated. Feedback from others was great - because many appeared quite experienced. Feedback guideline parameters made it kinder to read the comments.

I enjoyed reading so many wonderful stories. I'm not alone in my journey.

If you want to learn, improve or publish your work check out AWC. I've been in other critique groups before which turned me off writing, but since starting AWC courses, they've got high standards in giving constructive, considerate, useful feedback - never destructive or demoralising.

Since 2017 I've been doing AWC courses and they continue to provide gold star (Michelin) standard courses.

Wonderful pep talk for those of us who sometimes languish in a morass of being overwhelmed, muddled and amongst other self-defeating prophecies.

I will get back to my book sooner rather than later.

Don't hesitate, do it now!

The research that Kate has done is absolutely phenomenal.

I loved the presentation style, and the accompanying artwork just added an extra layer of richness to the course.

It has shown me that it is ok to devote my life to learning and that it will take time and practice to perfect my craft.

From the opening module of inspiration, I was absolutely hooked. The knowledge Kate presented was so varied and in depth, however, totally understandable.

The quality of courses run by AWC are consistently high, with the most up-to-date industry knowledge available. The participant is always left with the feeling that anything is achievable.

Absolutely inspiring, such a refreshing approach, so many wonderful pointers to enrich my journalling and writing, and has given me the impetus I needed to believe in my writing again - Thank you Kate!

Kate's sharing of her craft - the way I felt as though Kate was talking to me directly and cheering me on with my writing, and the gorgeous artwork she chose to send subliminal messages throughout. The 12 challenges - practical and wonderful for a lifetime of writing.

Renewed belief in my writing abilities.

If you want to learn about writing from masters of the craft, AWC is the place to do it.

Valerie has a lovely voice and stage presence. I found the course interesting and enjoyable. It also helped to hear firsthand experience from an experienced journalist.

I feel more confident in writing media releases and approaching the media. I'm beginning my career as a children's book author. I hope to use what I have learned in this course to gain media coverage once my career gains momentum.

I feel equipped with a proven strategy endorsed by an experienced journalist. This course covers every step from formatting the content of the media release to discovering an appropriate point of contact within the media.

There was so much packed into this little course. It was simple but also offered practical exercises and tools to help me develop my writing skills and daily writing practice. I've taken lots of notes and saved everything so I can come back to what I've learned whenever I need to refocus.

I think I've been struggling with giving myself permission to prioritise writing, and not just writing but thinking, researching random ideas, going down the rabbit hole for no other reason than I'm interested. This course has helped me step into my power and prioritise the things that don't matter to anyone else but me.

AWC courses are professionally presented, clear and engaging.

I desperately want to get my kids' books published and thought this would be great motivation, plus I'm a new teacher and thought it could give me some tips about being in front of big groups of kids.

I didn't expect the course to be so thorough! There was so much information, it was fabulous.

Nat Amoore is infectious so it was a pleasure listening to her and watching her.

The enthusiasm of Nat really sucked me right in, but her dedication and the detail she goes into with her work is truly inspiring. It really made me look at what I'm doing and realise I need to push myself way more!

Just a big thank you because I really think the information was invaluable, there was so much I learned.

DO IT!

I found the course very engaging, and the personal feedback very helpful. Pamela Freeman was a good teacher, covering a lot of helpful information in a very understandable way, using examples when needed. I loved getting personal feedback on my creative process every week.

I'm motivated to keep working on my current story, and have realized that a novel I wrote previously needs a lot more work, possibly a complete rethinking, before it would be ready for sharing.

I would recommend it for anyone interested in writing fantasy within western structures, and needing help with worldbuilding or planning the story.

It was like being taken gently but firmly on an adventurous journey.

It connected to what I know about the brain and helped me to understand how I can use this knowledge to develop a writer's life.

Do this course before anything else.

This course really challenged me - in a good way.

Nat was very encouraging and constructive with her feedback, and quick to respond in the chat too. It was really helpful to be able to listen to her feedback to everyone in the group as well as the individualised feedback to me because we were all writing in such different ways but everything she was saying was applicable to everyone.

It broke down the craft into discrete sections and then took each of those separate building blocks and helped us put them back together again. I was so grateful to find the information about the questions you can ask yourself to help you move forward with your idea.

Practical, experiential, thoughtful courses with very encouraging tutors.

It's given me the plan I need to finish my novel(s). I'm excited to put this all into practice starting today. As someone who is great at executing but NEEDS a plan, this has unlocked my brain with how to move forward.

I loved the idea of working out the five major plot points and building around that. Even if it slightly changes, I know that having an internal idea of where I am writing towards will be MASSIVE for me to actually finish my stories.

I already recommend AWC to everyone. Every course I've done, I've gained so much value. I'll definitely be back for more just because I love it. I'm studying a Bachelor in Creative Writing and Publishing, and I love it! But there's also so much of the practical, how-to, information that is missed in higher education. So having these very practical courses supplement my degree has helped me get even more out of it.

I work as a technical documentation writer and trainer and I also blog so I was looking to improve my skills and see if there is a market for what I write.

Alex was an excellent tutor. She provided excellent and constructive feedback as well as carrying out extra research to assist with the details of her feedback.

During the research and interview sections, I realised that I do this as a trainer and technical writer and that could be adapted.

If you write and are thinking about writing for money, check this course out; it provides techniques and background you'll need to start your writing journey.

This was the final piece I felt I needed to ensure I was clear on before I started submitting my manuscript to agents and publishers.

The AWC courses are professional, candid and practical, every time.

Loved the course. The detail was amazing and was presented so clearly.

Bernadette is a champion! Her experience speaks for itself.

I like how the online platform helps to build community in that you can like other people's comments, there are self-introductions at the beginning and you can see each other's assignments which is great for sharing ideas too.

Highly professional and easy-to-use online platform that makes learning fun and easy. The format of weekly assignments allows for progressive learning that builds on week to week. The experience of the tutor was amazing and provided real-world industry examples.
