Bruno Bastos –
That was an amazing course!
Although I’m an experienced college student, I still could get good tips with this course. I learned how to find a better balance between the ideas I want to present and the resources I can use to endorse them. Also, I clarified some tips for punctuations in quotations, such as ellipsis, commas, and periods. Finally, I reinforced how important it is to always ask “so what?/who cares?” whenever I quote an author. After doing this course, I feel much more confident to write essays at university.

I am currently registered for academic English. The explanation is clear and easy to follow. I am looking forward to learn more and increase my understanding of my second language.
Tessa Kreighbaum –
Just started, but I have Great Expectations, given the introduction!
Panpraporn Jitjumroonchokchai –
The course is very good for learning academic writing in overview. But I would like to suggest that the instructor should hilight some word or sentences that different or important because it seems difficult to distinct.
Sweta Ghosh –
The course was very enriching and knowledge enhancing. However, I would really appreciate if there was some resources provided as a part of study material. This would help me to go back and look into it, whenever, I am writing.
Guilherme Cavalcante Silva –

Adam UK –
It is a quick and refreshing course; it is suitable for college students in the UK based on my experience because I am a university student and English is my third language; however, I do not recommend it for UK university students due to a lack of intensiveness. Thank you.
