  • Objective

    In this workshop, the participants learn to express their thoughts more clearly in writing using a wide range of language tools and more versatile vocabulary. They work systematically to improve their grammatical weaknesses and to develop their essay-composing skills, with regards to style, expression and coherence. Based on a systematic, practice-oriented approach, we "analyze" essays, reports and other scientific text forms by breaking them down into their individual components, optimizing the writing competence of each participant.
