Writing Workshops

The ability to write and speak correctly and effectively is not only a necessity for courses in English, but also a prerequisite for succeeding in any school subject, including the physical and social sciences, and mathematics. Most standardized and school admissions tests that students take emphasize the ability to use the English language properly. Writing and speaking skills are also important tools for getting a job and trying to advance a chosen career. Employees will often make judgments about employees based on how well they are able to communicate to clients, fellow employees, and to those they supervise.

The ability to use words in a precise and powerful manner, to communicate clearly, correctly, and effectively in every situation, both on and off the job is crucial.

“Good English, well spoken and well written, will open more doors than a college degree. Bad English will slam doors you don’t even know exist."
