What Sets Our Courses Apart?
1. An emphasis on drafting individual sentences.
At many writing programs, instructors do not spend a lot of time teaching students how to draft individual sentences. Instead, instructors focus on the paper as a whole. For example, an instructor might encourage students to use more evidence, or advise students to reorder their paragraphs.
Despite all of that support, students often struggle to express themselves in writing, which means they need help at the sentence level too. Our courses focus heavily on drafting effective sentences before they address the paper as a whole.
2. A belief that clear and concise writing is only the beginning.
After enough editing, most university students produce writing that is clear and concise. But more is required to consistently achieve great marks on essays and reports. To be near the top of the class, writers must excite their readers.
Our courses teach the strategies that make writing come alive. The courses explain how to improve writing that is already clear and concise, so that students can excite their professors and teaching assistants.
