TEACHING
For the last three semesters, I have been teaching English 101B: English for Native Speakers of Other Languages: Advanced Grammar Applied to Writing
The goals of English 101B are to prepare students for the English requirements of their university work. It covers advanced English grammar as it applies to writing and academic writing features such as drafting, choosing topics, developing and organizing materials, and revising. In this course students also learn how to analyze and improve their own writing by reading and responding to classmates’ draft papers. A vocabulary assignment will help them improve their academic vocabulary, and they will practice important skills of summarizing and responding through reading assignments. As a result of this course, they should develop fluency and confidence in writing.
Looking for useful resources to teach/learn writing strategies?
