In this ongoing English writing course, learners will plan and write an essay on a different topic each week. Learners can submit their writing for feedback each week. ESL friendly. Essay writing promotes critical thinking whereby you reflect on an issue and reach a conclusion. It pushes students to assess different arguments so that they can come up with stronger positions. Through critical thinking, students learn how to observe different perspectives and views. Essay writing is an important skill essential for academic excellence and personality development.
