The ExpertRating Online ESL Writing Course
(leading to ExpertRating ESL Writing Skills
Certification).
Has your academic or career progress been slowed by the challenges
of writing in English? Many ESL learners have excellent educations,
training, and skills in their native countries. However, their dreams
of success elude them in English-speaking countries because they cannot
write effectively in their new language. This course will show you what
English readers expect and how your writing can achieve your goals.

You will learn about the entire writing process and its five stages:
prewriting, outlining, writing, revising, and editing. In the first two
stages, you will see how to generate and then focus your ideas. In the
writing and revising stages, you will discover how to write clearly
focused topic sentences and thesis statements, which will guide you
in writing logical, unified paragraphs and essays. In the final stage,
you will refine and perfect your work, making it free of grammatical and punctuation errors.

Along the way, you will also gain important critical thinking skills
and learn some techniques for writing concisely—something that is
highly valued in English writing. When you finish this course, you
will be able to write clearly, logically, and cohesively, and you will
be able to apply what you have learned in any academic or work setting.
This course includes a knowledgeable and caring instructor who will guide you through your lessons, facilitate discussions, and answer your questions. The instructor for this course will be Sabri Bebawi.

ExpertRating Online ESL Writing Course
Coverage (6 weeks program)
Week One |
Wednesday - Lesson 01 |
Knowing how to write well is one of
the most important skills you can
have, whether you're writing e-mails
and letters at work or essays and
research papers in school. The first
lesson will explore the key
differences between speaking and
writing plus a few techniques for
continually improving your writing
throughout your life. But there's
more! You'll also understand the
whole process of writing, starting
with the prewriting stage and going
all the way through the editing
stage. You'll see that you truly can
master writing in English, and this
lesson will show you how! |
|
|
|
|
|
Friday - Lesson 02 |
Do you ever
struggle with not knowing what to write
about? Many people do. In lesson 2 you'll
learn two effective methods for generating
all the ideas you need: brainstorming and
clustering. Then, once you have your ideas,
you need to organize them. You'll do this in
the outlining stage. An outline is like a
detailed map of where you want to take
readers in your writing. When your outline
is finished, you're ready to begin writing.
So, this lesson will also examine two
crucial elements of any written piece: the
topic sentence and paragraphs. |
|
|
|
Week Two |
Wednesday - Lesson 03 |
In this
lesson, you'll learn all about how to
write effective essays. Why should you
learn about this particular form of
writing? The essay form will hone your
writing and thinking skills, helping you
develop and connect your ideas in a
clear, logical, focused way. You can
certainly apply these skills in any
setting! A vital component of all essays
is the thesis statement, so you'll spend
a lot of time exploring this. When you
finish with this lesson, you'll be able
to write strong thesis statements that
will set a sure course for your essays. |
|
|
|
|
Friday - Lesson 04 |
Now it's time
to try out what you've learned so far about
essays! In this lesson, you'll learn about
three different essay types: descriptive,
narrative, and explanatory. Each type has
its own distinct purpose. Descriptive essays
have vivid details that help your readers
get involved in what you're writing.
Narrative essays tell stories, starting at
the beginning and moving logically to the
end. Explanatory essays allow you to explain
something you know about to your readers.
This lesson has provided lots of examples to
show you how to write each kind of essay.
You'll have fun with these! |
|
|
|
Week Three |
Wednesday - Lesson 05- |
You'll be
able to apply the essay styles you
learned about in the previous lesson to
many other kinds of essays, including
the one you'll learn about in this
lesson: the compare and contrast essay.
These essays let you examine, describe,
and explain the similarities and
differences between at least two topics.
Additionally, you'll get acquainted with
the importance of transitions and see
what they can do for your writing. Rest
assured—this lesson will provide you
with lots of examples to walk you
through how to write these very
interesting pieces. |
|
|
|
|
Friday - Lesson 06 |
Have you ever
struggled to explain to your child what the
effects of a certain course of action would
be? Or have you ever tried to explain to
your boss how one thing caused something
else to happen? You may not have realized
it, but you were engaging in the logical
thinking required to understand cause and
effect relationships. In lesson 6, you'll
sharpen your logical skills by learning how
to write cause and effect essays. Sometimes
you'll analyze how one cause produced
several different effects. At other times,
you'll analyze how one effect had several
causes. Once again, this lesson will provide
you with sample essays that will point the
way in your own writing. |
|
|
|
Week Four |
Wednesday - Lesson 07 |
Do you
feel confident in presenting or
defending your opinions? In this lesson,
you'll acquire one of the most important
skills in writing: how to argue your
point of view convincingly. You'll learn
how to develop a sound thesis, organize
your supporting evidence, and explain
your argument fairly and persuasively.
Most important, you'll learn how to
think critically, as well as recognize
and avoid fallacies. This will be a most
interesting lesson, and as always, this
lesson will provide you with many
examples to guide you along your way. |
|
|
|
|
Friday - Lesson 08 |
In the past
seven lessons, you've explored the
prewriting, outlining, writing, and revising
stages of the overall writing process. In
the balance of this course, you'll
strengthen your grammar skills so that you
can perform the final stage—editing—with a
keen eye and a sure hand. In this lesson,
you'll study the art of wording. You'll
learn how to rephrase wordy, redundant,
pretentious, and vague language. You'll also
understand what homophones and homonyms are
and safely discern the right word to use.
Finally, you'll learn to guard against slang
and clichés so you can communicate well in
any setting. Most of all, you'll see how fun
and useful grammar can really be! |
|
|
|
Week Five |
Wednesday - Lesson 09 |
Native
English speakers and writers often
struggle with verbs, so this tricky area
will be something ESL learners will want
to be extra careful about. Verbs can be
the most powerful words in your
sentences, but if you don't use them
correctly, they become powerfully
confusing. Lesson 9 will examine verb
tenses and inflections, subject-verb
agreement issues, and active vs. passive
voice. When you finish this lesson,
you'll use verbs with confidence! |
|
|
|
|
Friday - Lesson 10 |
Having spent
the entire previous lesson looking at verbs,
you now need to learn about the other parts
of speech. So this lesson will review
important features of nouns and pronouns,
adjectives and adverbs, prepositions, and
conjunctions. Next this lesson will look at
the three types of clauses: noun, adjective,
and adverb clauses. Finally, you'll gain
another important technique for trimming
wordiness: reducing clauses to simple
phrases. |
|
|
|
Week Six |
Wednesday - Lesson 11 |
The English language, though
certainly not the most
difficult, can present native
and non-native speakers alike
with challenging problems. In
this lesson, you'll see how to
avoid some common problems with
subjects and objects so that
your writing will always be
clear. Next, you'll laugh as you
learn about mistaken and
dangling modifiers. These
misplaced and unclear words and
phrases often create as much
unintentional humor as they do
confusion! Finally, you'll
discover how to tell possessives
and contractions apart. This is
sure to be an entertaining, as
well as informative, lesson! |
