Hi, most people have struggled to pay for their course, even though they have the opportunity to apply for financial aid through Coursera for financial support.

The main reason for this is the lack of understanding of how to apply for financial aid (or) the laziness to compose 150 words of financial aid material.

I would like to share the material that I used to apply for financial assistance with the course name “Academic English: Writing Specialization” to support and inspire them.

But for your information, you can’t apply for the specialization straight away using a single financial aid application, Instead, you have to submit your application for financial assistance one by one for each course.

I’m <My name> I completed a master’s degree in <My domain> from India in 2019 at <University name>, <place>. When I was writing my thesis, I got exposed to a few academic writing experiences. But during my previous experiences, because of self-doubt and self-criticism, I faced a lot of difficulties, rarely I thought that my writing structure was not strong. To learn academic techniques and to develop personally in the writing portion, I am eager to take this MOOC course. My strengths in academic writing were my vocabulary and my understanding of English. However, when I was in the writing process, My strength would be I knew what to write and my inability to arrange my ideas perfectly is my weakness. But due to covid-19, I lost my job and facing an immense financial crisis right now. I would be thankful if I had the opportunity to complete this course so that I could get my “Academic English: writing” certification.
