Thank you, Felipe; I really appreciate that! I'm excited to start covering tips on teaching writing as well as on writing. :) Hope all's well on your end!
Thank you so much for preparing useful videos. Could you please share some tips for assessing your clients skills before starting the professional writing skills?
Yes, you're right: It's important to assess the writer's current level before diving in to help them. Often, teachers will give a "diagnostic" early in a semester, a workshop, or a meeting. That way they can check the writers' levels. Personally, I like to give a questionnaire that asks participants to reflect on their current writing styles and what they're confident about (or not). This helps me more than the diagnostic in some ways because writing depends so much on thinking. By gauging my learners' experience with analyzing writing situations, and making intentional decisions based on that analysis, I know more about where to start our discussion.
