The English Club
The English Club was started in September 2020 to provide students in India with access to English tutoring and American teaching. Over the course of 10 weeks, I teach students new essay writing techniques, have students practice writing essays, review and critique their essays, and facilitate book club discussions and analyses.
How the Club Works
I teach students essay writing techniques, give them formatting and grammar tips, and provide book club reading. Once a lesson is taught, the students practice writing, and I edit their work for feedback. The book club aspect includes two books throughout the 10 week session, in which we read and analyze the story with rhetorical devices and in-depth conversations.
