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. This 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 of you do. In this
lesson, 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 is providing 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 this lesson, 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.
This lesson 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 it'll 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! |
