- Students will improve their understanding of the English language and reading comprehension to become more skilled writers. Students will learn concepts such as grammar, sentence types, context clues, reading comprehension, and homophones to improve writing skills. Additionally, students will learn brainstorming techniques, how to create a template for their essays to carry out the actual writing of their content, and will learn how to effectively edit their papers by learning strategies for the editing phase.
With more than seven years of teaching experience in writing and English, I have helped thousands of students improve their writing skills. Additionally, I have my Master's degree in Communication Management from The University of Southern California. My degree focused heavily on professional writing, and have therefore learned and mastered the essential concepts to writing a cohesive and well-thought-out essay.
