授業方法

Although this is primarily a writing class, students will be expected to discuss the various topics in English before writing about them, and to work on textbook exercises together. The teacher will give as much individual attention to each student as possible, but students will be expected to help and support each other in the learning process.

準備学習

Students will be required to write ten page-long journals during the semester. Students should also review the material studied before each writing assignment.
