French Writing Workshop

The page remains for information only.

To pass an exam or to move to a better job, you have to improve your writing skills.

What about receiving personal help?

Send me your homework and you'll get a personalized correction that deals with your problems, not with generalities.

You may send your own papers, almost as many as you wish since the limit is 10000 words a month.

If you prefer to practice under working conditions, you can write about the subjects that I propose. Each week, two subjects are proposed. They may include a theme, a version, a question, a text to comment, etc.
You are invited to translate, to answer, to comment, to summarize, etc, depending on each exercise.

The corrections concern only the French language.
I won't correct: La terre est plate; but I will correct: La terre sont plat:
La terre est singulier plate féminin.
As much as possible, you not only get a correction, but also the reasoning behind it.

Your essay is corrected within two working days.

With 10000 words a month, you have enough room to try several versions of a sentence in order to know which one is the best, why or under what circumstances.

It is amazing but, since the traditional teaching puts the students' future at stake, it prevents them from learning as much as they could.
Within the traditional school system, you may not have a go: you are limited by the need to succeed.

In the French Writing Workshop
your attempts will not cost you bad marks.
Your mind will be free and better able to absorb new knowledge.
You will learn what is possible and what is not, because you will try new turns, words, and conjugation patterns, instead of safely writing inside your already known domain.

Don't be afraid of making mistakes: if you were fluent in French, you wouldn't attend this class, right? The best thing for you is to write regularly and then to read the correction carefully, and to try to reproduce the structures that are proposed.

I propose various subjects in order to help you enrich your French vocabulary while improving your skills in writing French;
but they are suggested, not imposed.

If none of the given subjects inspires you, you are welcome to try one of yours.
It may be the right moment to have a translation verified,
or to prepare your resume in French.

Whatever your choice, you are bound to improve your skills!
When you need less than 2 hours to write a 1000-word essay, it's time for you to opt out of the class and make room for someone else.

The number of essays I can correct is limited, and so is the number of students I can help at the same time.
That is the reason why the order button happens to disappear from time to time.

It costs $89 a month to enrol in the Writing Workshop
