Writing skills in essays, stories and letters — organising your own views clearly in English.

Writing stories, essays and letters

About this course

In Class 7 students learn to arrange arguments in English. Writing structure, accurate word choice and correct tense use become essential, and every piece of writing is improved step by step in our classes.

Many of our students find English hard to understand or speak, because they rarely have regular English conversation outside the classroom. In this course we remove that fear and slowly build an easy friendship with the language.
