Navigating Academic Writing:
Spring2015_ESLwriting group (undergrad) flyer
Writing Group for International Undergraduate Students
Would you like to talk about US academic writing?
Do you sometimes wonder what your writing assignments mean?
Do you struggle to talk with your professors and classmates about writing?
Would you like to practice US conventions of using sources?
Then you would want to join the FREE writing groups for multilingual students hosted by the Writers Workshop. These groups are specifically for writers whose first language is not English and will meet in a 4-week session. Topics will be tailored to your needs but may include organizing ideas, understanding different kinds of writing tasks, understanding instructors’ responses, and using sources. The sessions will be led by an experienced Writers Workshop consultant who understands struggles with writing in English.
In order to participate, you must attend the informational meeting on
February 3 (Tuesday) at 3:00PM to sign up. If you are selected, you must attend all four sessions. Students who have participated in Navigating Academic Writing in the past are not eligible.
