WRITING CORRECTION


As I explained in class, when I correct your first writing assignment I will include some symbols to help you focus on your mistakes. Before the end of the week, you have to try to rewrite the essay again with possible solutions for your mistakes. I will give a grade to this second version. Of course, you are welcome to come to the department during the break to discuss any doubts. 
Here is the list of symbol correction we discussed in class.
