A Matter of Style
Sentence structure is vital, as it provides a framework for structuring our narrative. Equally important is how we clothe and style our sentences.
Furthermore, sentence variety gives life and rhythm to our writing. Multiple sentences with the same structure and length is monotonous; whereas long sentences can incorporate much information, short sentences can provide impact and strength. |
Our innovative course has been designed for those who require flexibility; guided independent study, online practice elements, while bringing everything together with writing tasks.
Although designed for flexibility and independence, you are not alone. Your mentor is there to support and guide you; answering questions, commentating on your work, and advising on improvements. |
Who is this designed for?
Clear leadership, expressed in writing, creates alignment and boosts productivity. Clear writing equals credibility and truth. This course is designed for those who want to improve their overall writing style, whether it is an email or report, instructions or memos. Vague writing dilutes: if writing expresses thoughts, poor writing shows poor thinking.
