The series aims to help students understand the basic conventions of U.S. academic writing and arm them with strategies to improve their own work. It will cover basic “nuts and bolts” topics, such as verb choice and paragraph structure, that might not be covered in many college classrooms and offer supplemental material for classes that do. It is intended for students who need basic assistance with American Academic writing. This session will discuss Flow, Structure, & Punctuation!
