Online Courses for A Levels, IGCSEs and Flexible Learning

Who Can Study with Learn Now?

Online learning is available to everyone and there are many reasons why students are unable to attend schools or colleges, such as:

Home educated students: Learners who are no longer in the school system will usually complete home schooling. This is a lot for parents/guardians to put together and many find that joining a distance learning programme that they can oversee themselves helps to fill the void. Learners are then able to stay on track with their education.

Adult Learners: It isn’t always possible to complete your qualifications whilst at school and distance learning gives an alternative option, where you can complete your studies later.

Students retaking qualifications: We may not always receive the grades we hoped for, and online learning provides students with the option to retake exams when they are ready.

International Learners: Qualifications are not always accessible to international students, due to cost or living in extremely remote areas.  Numerous international students’ study with our college and receive the grades and qualifications they require to further their career.

University progression: If you haven’t quite got the grades needed for university entry, Learn Now can help you with unlimited support. Contact our Student Advisors for assistance.

5 tips for learners studying via Learn Now 

Online means something other than more accessible. An online or paper-based distance learning course will offer you more flexibility than a course at a conventional college, which means it could work out easier for you.

Understand what is meant by the term ‘online’ or ‘distance learning’ 

Online does not necessarily mean easier. An online course or paper based distance learning course will offer much more flexibility than a course at a conventional college, however you will still need to dedicate a substantial amount of your time and be fully committed to your learning.

Have reliable internet access

With some of your courses, you will be able to work offline, however the best advice we could give is to make sure you back up all of your work. This could perhaps be using cloud storage or a memory stick. If you do this, if any glitches do happen you won’t lose your work.

Work out what your learning objectives are from the very beginning and revise regularly

With an online or distance learning course, it is great to keep in your mind what you want to achieve at the end of it. Consider starting with tasks that are more difficult, as this will improve the effectiveness of your study and your performance. Building a study plan might help keep you on track with your learning objectives as well as make sure that everything is covered. It will also help to revise regularly to keep everything fresh in your mind as it is easy to forget important facts.

Ask for help when you need it

With most courses, you will have tutor support included. Whilst it can be good for you to look for answers to your queries online independently, it is great to check in with your tutor so that they can also help you and provide you any further resources. Keep in mind that if you don’t ask for help when you need it, your online instructor may never know that something is wrong. Learn Now are always here for you.

Take regular breaks and stay motivated 

Your performance will not be as good if you are tired or getting frustrated whilst studying. Ensure you take regular breaks which include perhaps a walk around the block to help clear your head. Also never underestimate the effort and commitment required for any kind of course. After all what you get out of a course can be life changing.
