To succeed in academic writing, you have to understand and master a few key principles and, above all, practice, practice, practice!

While only you can put in the practice, this workshop will equip you with the know-how and tools to facilitate a productive writing process.

Once you recognise the principles of good academic writing, you will be able to employ them effectively to achieve great writing of your own.

This workshop covers the three key factors that make up good academic writing: Structure, Grammar/Style, and Consistency.

The fourth workshop module then introduces you to the missing piece of the puzzle to take your academic writing skills from good to great. It’s all about finding your written voice through authentic communication.

And finally feel confident in your writing

This Masterclass is packed with academic writing how-tos that range from selecting your data… to structuring a paragraph… developing the sections of your paper… the submission and review process… learning about grammar, style, and punctuation… to developing your unique tone of voice to engage your audience and get your papers read and cited.

In this hands-on workshop you will get the foundation you need to THINK differently about what your academic writing can do and how it should sound.

You will gain the skills to plan your writing in a logical way, so the writing process itself becomes quick and easy and you don’t have to agonise over every word.

You’ll also learn how to edit your own work to ensure your writing is clear, concise and compelling, and, best of all, you can do it all immediately with the right training and the help of handy templates and a proven process.

Your Presenter
Helena Merschdorf, SEO & Conversion Copywriter

Hi, I’m Helena, and I’ve been writing ever since I started pushing crayons around a scrapbook in my kindergarten days.

Since then I have written hundreds if not thousands of pieces.

I’ve written books, scientific journal articles, magazine articles, academic theses (1 x Bachelor’s, 2 x Master’s and 1 PhD, to be precise), advertising materials, reports, email campaigns, and websites.

Many, many websites.

In this time, I’ve learned a thing or two about what works and what doesn’t.

I’ve learned that writing for the internet is a totally different gig to writing offline, and I’ve learned what it takes to stand out online.

I’m also a tad bit of a nerd (and a scientist), which is why I’ve paired my practical writing experience with experiements, data analytics, user testing, and constant research and development to be at the top of my game.

It’s my mission to distill this experience and expertise into useful and digestible chunks, so I can help solopreneurs and businesses nail their message, build trust and authority, and stand out online.

I’ve worked with over 300 companies and institutions around the world, including brands like…
