Arcadia England

The Academic Studio is a service that we offer to all students, including those on direct enroll programmes, providing academic advice and support. 

Our full time faculty members have weekly office hours throughout the semester, during which they are happy to help you out with your various concerns. Be warned, they won't write your essays for you! So make sure you bring something along, or at least have a clear idea about what it is you wish to discuss.. Individual sessions will run on a first-come-first-served basis and, during busier times, will typically last between ten and fifteen minutes. Skype tutorials are available for students studying outside of London.

The main services that we offer are:

• Editing essays and other coursework: please bring a hard copy of the assignment and come with specific questions and points of concern. Studio staff will not proofread work, and may not have time to read the entire paper or project.
• General writing support: students of all levels require guidance with the organisation, presentation, and argumentation of their written work. You can seek help in how to improve the general standard of your writing. We can also assist with issues surrounding grammar, syntax, and referencing.
• Research methods: receive support on how to conduct research, both primary and secondary, for your assignments. You’ll get advice on how to construct a strong bibliography of appropriate sources.
• Other academic advice: the Studio also offers assistance with the writing of applications for further study or experience, such as internships and graduate programmes.
