Customer Reviews
Really very useful!
I have recently changed for a business structured course to a level 3 literature course, and this was enormously helpful to me to refocus my essay writing to what is expected within a writing/ arts course. The two essay writing structures are entirely different.
Well done to the OU and iTunes for making this free and easy to access!
