This 5-week course is for you if your first language is not English and you have a good university entry level in the skill of writing. This course may also be suitable for you if your secondary education in your home country was taught in English, but you would benefit from support in academic writing.
Building on your current language skills, you will improve the clarity, cohesion, argumentation and critical evaluation in the texts you produce such as essays or reports. Develop your essay writing skills, work on your referencing, and improve your critical thinking. You will also learn how to create a strong argument and how to effectively synthesise sources.
Increase your knowledge of complex grammatical structures and academic vocabulary and receive targeted feedback and advice.
This is an online course. Following registration you will be invited to join the course specific Canvas space with links to join each online session.
