Because classes are to be conducted online, we will use the Zoom platform combined with email for essay assignment submissions. Through Zoom, it is still possible to conduct the class like a face to face format.Students will usually work in groups of four. Apart from completing writing exercises and writing assignments over the course of the semester, students will also be expected to read and discuss topics in English related to the development of English writing skills and essay composition. | ||||||||||

Students should review all materials and exercises that are practiced during class time and try to use what they learned in their writing in future classes and assignments. Students are also encouraged to work with a writing journal to summarize and review weekly class-work and vocabulary. I can be contacted by email for advice and guidance at any time. | ||||||||||
