English Composition
Thank you for your interest in our Online College Preparatory English Composition workshop, a powerful and proven Internet-based interactive curriculum designed to improve College Placement Test scores and prepare students for college level studies.
This workshop is a self-paced computer based distance learning composition course. Students utilize the World Wide Web, e-mail, and course news groups to fulfill writing and critical thinking assignments and intensive practice in written communication. Assignments include discussions on current issues, readings and critical responses, and a variety of writing responses which emphasize the writing process.
Our online workshop provides the widest possible access to students of all age groups who need college preparatory help-and it costs less than a traditional course. Our workshop fee is $150 and includes all instruction, testing, and course materials.
The goal of the workshop is to prepare students to pass their College Placement Test by developing the basic writing skills necessary for college-level courses and to supplement students' current critical thinking and communication skills. After completing the workshop, students will have gained the confidence and experience necessary to enter college level English and composition courses at universities and community colleges. Students will complete the workshop with improved skills in these communication areas:
