This course aims to help students identify in what respects their writing needs improvement and to give them the opportunity to practice these aspects. To achieve these goals, we will identify and study a range of stylistic features, discuss matters of grammar and vocabulary, and practice writing diverse text types. Course participants will receive regular and individual feedback on their writing.
