I have a degree in Journalism and to learn the craft of writing that is much better than training in "English". In real life writing it is more about information being digestible than about perfect form.
As far as free lance writing the best way to do it is as a sideline or second income. Get a writing job, news, PR, advertising, radio/TV etc. This will allow you to practice the craft and then look for markets for the free lance work you do,
