How our courses work

CTJT students studying FREE GUIDE - Boost your reading speed

We believe in your potential!We email you the teaching materials, one module at a time. Most modules are accompanied by exercises and assignments.

You study the Module, email or Skype us with any queries and then complete the exercises and assignments.

You can email or Skype us if you need help or support, and chat to other students using our Student lpounge.

You then email your assignments to us for marking. We mark them and email back to you with a grade, comments and advice.

If you fail a module, you can improve it and re-submit it.

When you have passed the module, we send you the next one - and so on, until you finish the course.

We also provide help with finding work, jobs, preparing your CV and other areas that will help your career.

We can also design and create a high-quality blog for you for £49.95. It's vital that you have a good blog to showcase you and your work.

Is distance learning for you?

Distance learning isn’t for everyone. We want you to be sure our courses suit you before you enrol - though you have reassurance of our Money back guarantee

The US government produced a report and concluded that e-learning was more effective than classroom teaching. Read it

And the Guardian published an article praising e-learning.Subscribe to our monthly newsletter

These are are some of the advantages and disadvantages:

Advantages 

  • you work at your own pace and when it suits you - no timetables to worry about
  • you don't waste time and money getting to and from lessons
  • e-learning is carbon-neutral - no travel pollution, no printing
  • you don't have to worry about parking, vehicle security or personal security
  • you have quick, immediate access to a tutor - no need to book an appointment. This is especially useful in the run-up to exams
  • marked work is returned to you quickly - usually within 24 hours
  • you can start the course any time of the year
  • you can keep your existing job - the course will fit conveniently alongside your work and lifestyle arrangements. Many of our students are changing careers
  • you can take time out from the course if something unexpected crops up
  • you can do the course in any part of the world where there is internet access
  • coaching and tuition never stop - we stay with you until you pass your exams and get a suitable job
  • home study is usually cheaper than college-based courses
     

Disadvantages

  • you work on your own – you won’t have any classmates to help you and to socialise with
  • you must be self-disciplined and keep up to date with your studies
  • you must be motivated – the initiative to study comes from you. We don’t chase you
  • you do not get face-to-face tuition
  • you do not have access to facilities like gymnasiums, libraries etc that you have in a college
