This 8 week course focuses on the necessary skills it takes to write an excellent research paper, preparing students for college level courses. Students will learn how to organize a research paper from how to develop an outline for the paper to how to make seamless transitions between concepts. They will also learn MLA format, how to find sources, and how to utilize sources that avoids plagiarism. Each class will begin with an introduction of the new unit with students will listen to my instruction on the topic. Then they engage with materials such as example papers to practice identifying concepts covered in the lecture. Students will be expected to ask clarifying questions and work through their difficulties in developing a research paper. I make sure to use a variety of techniques based on the needs of my students. If you know the type of learner your child is, let me know to best prepare presentations for them. Otherwise, I will try to get to know their learning style in the first few lessons to ensure they do not fall behind. I don't like talking at students for 50 minutes. They will get bored and tune me out. I like an active classroom with discussions, questions, and practice activities. I am never offended if a student interrupts to say they need clarification. That means I have engaged them and can adjust to their needs. This is meant to prepare students for writing in college. I want the students to take and retain as much information as possible.
