You will look for errors and then be able to go to the end of the book and find out how you did. You will learn to expand your writing with the use of adjectives and adverbs. You will explore three western Holidays as you explore the culture of the Western world. Introduced here for the first time is the NLP Meta Model challenge to help you write more concisely so that others understand you more fully and completely. Each lesson also includes a short creative homework assignment to invite you to explore different forms of writing including the friendly letter, a formal email and writing poetry.
