Excellent essays
A practical approach to writing excellent essays
How it works: The instructor will send all work through e-mail at the beginning of the course. The reason to send it all at once is so that each student may work at his/her own pace and not have to wait for the group in order to proceed. So, while the course has a limit of 15 weeks total, the student may work at his/her own pace WITHIN that 15 weeks. Included are several exercises which go along with the instructional information provided. These exercises are NOT turned in to the instructor. They are simply for practice, yet necessary. What WILL be turned in to the instructor are the actual essays. From first draft to final copy, the student and instructor will correspond regarding the content and structure of the essay. The student will submit writing to the instructor through e-mail and the instructor will return the critiqued work through regular mail.
While Excel lent Essays is designed for grades 7-12, the instructor has given particular attention to designing the course for preparation for the new essay-writing section of the ACT/SAT college tests. Essay assignments are patterned after the actual format of the college test and the final essay will even be timed and hand-written in order to be a true practice test. After completing this course, students should be well-prepared for the college essay-writing section of the ACT/SAT. For students who are not preparing for the ACT/SAT, being timed and hand-writing will be optional. All students, however, will be taken through four complete essays.
