If you are looking to improve your writing skills, whether it be for a large research essay, an in-class essay or preparation for writing paragraphs or essays on tests, this course will help to establish where your current level of writing is and how to improve from there.
We will start with assessing where your current writing skills sit and then make an individualized plan for improvement from that point on, whether the writing is done individually or in a group session. Brainstorming ideas, outlining, editing drafts and final copies will all be covered as will proper in text citation and bibliographic citation as necessary.

My name is Dhana Matthews and I have been teaching for 20 years. I live in the greater Vancouver area (Delta) and love teaching the wide variety of students who come through my classroom every year. I love the energy students bring to the education system and I learn more every year as I adapt to the unique needs of learners. In my free time I love spending time with my son in his many activities and enjoy our work with rescue animals.
