Essay Construction
Mini-Course
Constructing an Essay is a step by step plan to learn to write an essay. Your student will walk through the entire process, lesson by lesson, and finish an essay.
You have access to this course for 1 year, so I recommend your student work through the process 2 or 3 times to entrench learning or use it alongside essay assignments they have in other courses.
Grading is not included with this course, but grading is available - please contact me for information.
