Do you want to be a better writer?
Yes! We are all writers!
We do not all write books – but we all write emails! Are your emails clear and effective? Are your reports at work clear and effective? Are your essays (for applications or grants) successful? Is letter writing difficult for you? Are you worried when you must write a note to your child’s teacher at school?
Don’t forget your text messages on your phone! That also is writing!
Does your writing express your thoughts and ideas? Does it achieve the results you want?
In my 23 years as Senior Staff Editor at The New York Times, I worked with some of the finest writers in the world. The quality of writing and editing at The New York Times is the highest in the English-speaking world. In your personalized Online English Writing Lessons, you will receive the full benefit of that priceless experience.
Being an editor is different from being a writer. The job of an editor is to make someone else a better writer. That is what I will do for you in your personalized Online English Writing Lessons.
My students become better writers in their own languages as well – not only in English!
COURSE LEVELS AND STRUCTURE
Our “textbook” in your personalized English Writing Lessons is, of course, your own writing.
We will examine and improve your writing on two levels. First, there is the English itself. Are you making grammar mistakes? Writing shows your level of English grammar very clearly. Writing is a good way to see your grammatical problems and explain things you do not understand. How is your vocabulary? Do you understand the meaning of the words you are using? That are the differences between two words that seem to mean the “same” thing. (The great American writer Mark Twain used to say – humorously, but truly: “If it meant the same thing, they wouldn’t have two words for it!”)
Then we examine your ideas. Are they clear? Are they in the correct order? Is your writing interesting? Are you saying everything you want to say? How are your transitions between ideas? Does the whole piece of writing flow smoothly?
This writing instruction – to New York Times standards of excellence – will make you a better writer in your own language as well. All of my writing students say that!
Become a confident and effective writer in English. Make your writing something you can be proud of.
Essay and Report Writing
Many students in my English Writing Lessons are writing essays. These essays can be for school or college or graduate school applications. Other essays are for grant or job applications. The English Writing Lessons at LearnEnglish-NY include this kind of writing.
Most professionals need to write reports – long and short. Those will also improve in our English Writing Lessons.
The basic rules of good writing are the same for anything you write. In our English Writing Lessons, you will learn these rules from an expert. In all of our Online English Lessons at LearnEnglish-NY, you are the textbook! Our classes and courses are individually designed just for you.
Practice and Feedback
Some students come to our English Writing Lessons to improve a specific piece of writing. Others come to learn the basics of good English writing.
If you have a piece of writing that needs help, we will work on that. If you do not, I will give you exercises that will teach you the fundamentals of good English writing. If you are preparing for an exam, we will use the same time limits that you will have on the test.
Whatever you need, we will teach it! You will become a better writer – in English and in your own language as well!
A SUCCESS STORY
“Christopher’s rules of good English writing has improved my life at work. When I needed to write a report, I used to worry so much I could not sleep! Christopher showed me a simple method that I can use in any kind of writing. We also improved my work emails. My wife also studied English writing at LearnEnglish-NY. She is no longer worried when she communicates with our children’s school.”

I don’t just teach English – I teach YOU! Lessons are individually designed for you alone.
