My unique writing course "Writing with New Scientist" -- a writing course based on academic articles and geared towards exam writing but without the pressure. 

There are two tracks: IELTS track (essays) and C2 Proficiency track (essays, articles, reviews). 

📝 What will we do?
- read and discuss articles from the "New Scientist" magazine;
- work with lexis and sentence structures;
- work on cohesion, coherence, paraphrasing and all the things you need for a successful exam answer;
- you'll write an exam answer. 

The course duration is approximately 10 months. ❗️❗️❗️

A perfect pre- or post-exam course!
