Improve your academic writing by working with a Fellow from the Royal Literary Fund:
Whatever your subject or level of study, the RLF Fellow offers one-to-one practical sessions to help you strengthen your academic writing.
This could mean support with planning and structure, advice on clarity and flow, guidance on how to write with greater critical analysis, or any other issue you want help with. The Fellow is a professional author and the advice will be tailored to your specific needs and aims.
The service is free and confidential. Each session lasts 50 minutes.
The RLF Fellow does not proofread your work, teach English as a second language or provide specialist support for specific learning needs.
