This is a free practical taster session designed for people who want to return to study as a mature student or improve their own study capability at University. During this two-hour taster, participants will explore some of the key study skills such as planning an essay, increasing your vocabulary; reading and referencing. This may lead to a short follow-on course in March examining how to manage your time and get organised; the four stages of editing your written work; how to research effectively; and how to adopt an academic writing style.
