About Academic writing
- Who it is for
- Students writing essays, coursework or reports in English.
- Before you start
- Able to write simple paragraphs in English. Bring a piece of your own writing to start from.
- Typical length
- Usually a term or a project; agreed with the tutor.
- How it is taught
- Taught one to one or in small groups, online or, where the tutor offers it, at home.
Academic writing lessons cover paragraphs, argument, referencing and editing. Tutors give feedback on the student's own drafts so they learn to improve their own writing. The goal is better skills, not finished work produced by someone else.
