While English has become an international language, there has not been sufficient attention to English composition and rhetoric. Writing is an important resource that helps us learn, organize, and thus ideas and make informed decisions. To help you become an effective teaching professional in this area, this course is designed to help you do the followings.

1. In order to teach English writing to your students, you will need to acquire the skill and craft to produce coherent, organized and convincing argumentative essay in English yourself.

2. Learn the knowledge and skill for teaching writing. This objective obliges you to learn and acquire teaching methods in English writing that are appropriate and effective for your students.

Throughout the course, I will engage you in a variety of tasks such as in-class reading and writing, group discussion and presentation, developing writing draft and revising it, reading scholarly sources, carrying out empirical research and write-up.
