If you are tired of IELTS Writing...

Why don't you join "Writing with The Guardian" this summer? ☀️

"Writing with The Guardian" is a writing mini-course based on articles from The Guardian. It is geared towards the C2 Proficiency exam (or CPE) articles but is also good for a variety of non-fiction and creative non-fiction types of writing.

- people who have taken CPE and want to stay in a good writing shape;
