About Us

From classroom to copy and back again

Catherine Jones, founder of Clean Slate Copy School

“Hi, I’m Catherine Jones – writing coach, course designer and copywriter and founder of Clean Slate Copy School.

With over 24 years of experience teaching, studying, and mastering the finer points of the English language, my purpose is to help businesses and marketers deliver content and messaging of the highest quality.

“I’ve been a freelance copywriter for over six years. Before that, I had a long career taming the toughest teenagers in the land as a qualified English teacher and manager of a unit for emotionally vulnerable secondary-age students.

“Over time, I’ve developed a deep understanding of how all kinds of people learn, progress, and master their craft. From this knowledge, I’ve created my own model for improving core writing skills – the Copy Catalyst Framework.

“I founded Clean Slate Copy School to help marketers become strong, confident writers. Through my copywriting work, I discovered so many write copy and communications as part of their role, but few receive the level of training they need to succeed. My mission is to bridge that gap with a different approach to CPD, that brings educational best practices to corporate training.”

The Clean Slate learning philosophy

We want to make learning fun and engaging, but we take your progress seriously.

We’ve all experienced it – the passive online course, where you watch videos, take notes, and then… nothing really changes.

That’s not us.

We believe in active learning. We believe in engagement, practice, feedback, encouragement and support. We believe that every individual who learns with us should take significant steps forward.

We won’t ever flog you a course and then forget about you. We’re here to guide, support, and celebrate as you develop the strong writing skills you need to create compelling copy with confidence and flair.

Training delivered by expert facilitators

“What I love most about training, whether working with a business or in the classroom, is seeing transformation happen.”
