This course uses the North American style of teaching to develop academic writing skills in English. It is student centered in its approach in that students will write critiques on articles they read and lead class discussions on them. Additionally, students write a 5-10 page term paper which is to be completed in 3 drafts. PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A RIGOROUS COURSE AND STUDENTS SHOULD BE PREPARE TO DO SEVERAL HOURS OF HOMEWORK EACH WEEK. (For Mid-Intermediate-level Students and students)
