By attending, you’ll use copies of your own academic writing to facilitate your learning within a peer-based environment, as opposed to working on your writing in solitude.
These sessions include short seminars on academic writing, which will be followed by the proofreading of the work provided by yourself and your peers.
You’ll learn to:
- Identify errors and inconsistencies in their work
- Master the skills needed for effective academic writing
- Improve editing and proofreading skills
It is compulsory to bring samples (paper copies or on a laptop/device) of your own work to use in each session (around 2000+ words). Food will be provided.
