President Aquino Meron Na Bang Napatunayan? Distance Education is Best For People Who Cannot Attend School

I am in Kaki attending an English Camp seminar at At-Mutlaq Hotel Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

This is my stand that home study program is best for people who have no time to go school and who are busy working like me - who at that time was working with the company Kawasaki Helicopter (S.A.) Ltd., Saudi Arabia as an account analyst. I am a product of a home study program. I started my creative writing course with The Writers Bureau in Manchester, London in 1999 by mail. Now already available online.

During the course, I had enjoyed the training and I found it that it's a first-class comprehensive course written by successful professional writers. I had enjoyed the caring, constructive help from my expert tutors who're all published writers. 

The course has a flexible study program to suit me. There were twenty individual writing assignments for my practice and guidance. With most of my assignments I will be writing material which can be submitted for publication. There're specialists who helped me and guided me on how to sell my writing. The best was that I studied the course anywhere in the world where there's a postal service as all study material, returned and corrected assignments and etc. are sent off to me by air.

I also have the choice to pay my tuition fees by installments. I could have the choice to study and to progress at my own speed to suit my circumstances. During the course I was given six specialist handbooks and an 80 minute cassette tape. For the whole course, I spent at least 680 sterling pounds - this includes expenses for postal services when sending off my assignments back to the Bureau for corrections plus other miscellaneous expenses. The course was actually designed for two years though I finished it for only one year.

This is the fruit of my home study program. I wrote this poem in Pilipino language as advised by my tutor that I should also write article in my own language.

The course was divided into two parts

The whole course was divided into two parts: Writing non-fiction and Writing fiction. During the course I received 30 modules with twenty assignments. Fifteen of the course modules were for non-fiction writing and the other fifteen for fiction writing.

I also received six handbooks

Aside from the 30 modules I received from the course for my practice and guidance. I also received six bonuses of handbooks written by remarkable authors. These handbooks are totally helpful for me with those 30 modules which until now I am using them as my references for my blog and blogging hobby online.

Thank you to the VIP of Writers Bureau

The two very important people I know at the Writers Bureau - who actually have encouraged me to pursue my tutorial course are no other than Mr. E.H. Metcalfe, the principal and Mrs. Diana Nadin, the Director of Studies. Mr. Metcalfe has worked in home-study training and distance learning since 1962 and this has involved him a substantial amount of technical and non-fiction writing. 

Mrs. Diana Nadin is an honors degree graduate in English from Nottingham University and she has worked in home-study tuition since 1978. Her experience has given her a deep insight into student needs and how to help student progress with his studies. She said, "It is particularly important that a student has competent, conscientious tutors throughout his course."

After the course, I applied what I learned from my tutorial course. I started my blog and blogging hobby online and also writing for other publishing sites like Triond, Wikinut, HubPages and ExpertsColumn.

Because of Nourah Alkhereiji ArabNews' Reporter, I Write

It was Nourah of Arab Newspaper, the first person, a woman who encouraged me to pursue my blog and blogging hobby online. It was her also who pushed me to pursue my plan to study Journalism and Short Story writing courses with the Writers Bureau in Manchester, London in 1999-2000 by mail and with the ICS - International Correspondence School in Pennsylvania, USA in 2000-2001 also by mail during those years, I was working with Kawasaki Helicopter (S.A.) Limited as an account analyst - owned by Sheik Abed-Leilah Kaki of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia for the period from March 23, 1994 to April 30, 2012.

On January 31, 1999, I wrote a letter and sent it off to the editor-in-chief of Arab Newspaper - Mr. Khaled A. Al-Maeena for Nourah Alkhereiji whom I mistakenly addressed as Big Mister.

My letter reads, "Hundreds of thousands of OFWs have loved, saluted and commended Nourah for his dedication to write such exposes, to edify readers to know behind the perception, disregarding any race". That was sixteen years ago, a draft of my letter to the editor is still available on my notebook.

I thought Nourah was a young guy. His daring expose re "Mutawwas give self a new role" as they loved to impose the law - mandated in the prevention of vices and promoting virtues in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Arab Newspaper published the said article written by Nourah on January 30, 1999.

Gaiety filled my heart when unexpectedly, I received letter from Mr. Tarik Alkhereiji - the brother of Nourah after a week that Mr. Al-Maeena, the editor-in-chief of Arab Newspaper forwarded my letter to Nourah. His letter mentioned that his sister wanted to thank me for my encouraging letter and she wanted to point out too - that mistake I had in referring Nourah as big Mister.

Immediately, I replied his letter. I explained to him what caused my mistake. And then I received again another letter from him telling me that I already got his sister's apology. Believe it or not - that mistake I made addressing Nourah as big Mister has pushed me to write more and more. 

With the help of Internet, I started to look for an online group on the Net with the same interests, loves and likes. Until in 2000, I started to create my personal blog at Blogger.com and had purchased my own domain website from the money I earned from my online blog and blogging hobby. Now they are open for public visits, comments and suggestions.

Of course, love is my other reason why I would write. Like Nourah Alkhereiji - who always loves to write for anything that interests her even though English language is not her language according to his brother Tarik - mostly of her writings were written in her Arabic language. Nourah is daring and competent writer that Arab Newspaper must be proud of her. Wish she can read this piece. My simple ways to say "Thank You".

Like Nourah, I could write too because I have the love in my heart. I have the dream to become a writer too, someday. Because of love, my interest to write for anything and everything I mostly liked and loved is growing every day. Besides, there is money from writing!
