Why choose the Academic Writing course?

In addition to detailed text analysis, group discussion and writing exercises, participants get the opportunity to clarify any longstanding doubts and work on their own writing in one-to-one sessions with their teacher.
After just one course, students will elevate their English writing skills to the level required of them in academia!
