Journaling with Written Homework
Description
How it works:
In your free time between lessons, express yourself by creating a short article on any topic that interests you. Whether it's about your work, hobbies, travels, experiences, or even the latest movie you enjoyed—anything goes! The key is to write about what interests you because, trust me, writing becomes a breeze when you're passionate about the subject.
Wondering about the length?
I suggest a minimum of 250 words, but please remember this is just the minimum! I encourage you to write more.
If we can't finish everything in one lesson, that's fine—we'll continue where we left off next time. Some of my students often write multiple pages of text!
(I also enjoy photos when you want to include them with your writing.)
Once you have prepared your written article you send it to me before the lesson, but I don't read it! At the start of the lesson, you read it aloud to me.
When you read it to me, I listen, and after we talk about your pronunciation, cadance, and other speaking skills.
After the initial read-through, we'll dive into the article together. Sentence by sentence, we'll examine vocabulary, grammar, punctuation, and other technical points. Any errors we find, we will correct. But beyond that, we will also explore alternative choices and options, even when your writing is spot-on. There's always room for creativity in language!
This exercise covers it all—reading, writing, speaking, listening, grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation—you name it! We'll pinpoint specific areas for improvement, tailoring the experience to enhance your unique English language abilities.
Ready to take the next step? Book a trial lesson today! We'll have an informal chat about the process, address any questions you may have, and kickstart your journey to mastering English.
I am excited to study together soon!
