What Our Clients Say ...

“Well equipped, comfortable, good friendly service” -- Brian T
Everyday English Skills - Writing - (Entry Level 3) PDF Print E-mail

Good writing means that you get your message across clearly in a way that’s easily understood. This course concentrates on new skills and techniques to help you improve the way you write.

It focuses on three key areas of writing: planning, organising and checking and correcting.
You’ll learn why it’s important to plan what you are going to write and you’ll be shown how lists, spider diagrams and notes can help you organise your ideas. You’ll be shown how to use paragraphs and headings to put across your main ideas clearly. And you’ll learn how to proof-read your work to check it makes sense and to pick up any spelling or punctuation mistakes.

As you move through the course, mini tests let you check that you’ve understood the learning and give you the chance to practise your new writing skills in realistic, everyday situations.
