<p><span>Dr. Antonia Johnson from Clear Talk Mastery will present a
1.5-hour workshop on "How to Improve Pressional Writing Skills: The
Nine Most Important Grammar and Editing Tips" on Friday, March 11,
2011, 11:30am-1:00pm, at FL2-1001. <br>
</span></p>
<p><span>Of all the hundreds of things to do to improve writing, which
are the most important for a person with English as a second language?<span>
</span>The workshop will tell the answer.<span> </span>Dr. Antonia
Johnson will describe the six naked grammar rules.<span> </span>Violate
any one of these rules, and the mistake leaps out at the reader or
listener just as if you were to walk out of your home naked.<span> </span>Dr.
Johnson will identify the best editing tips for ESL and all writers.<span>
</span>Lastly, she will reveal the simple secrets for optimal
proofreading: what you should look for and how to find mistakes.<span> </span>This
view of critical grammar rules and editing tips comes from expert
opinion; Dr. Johnson’s experience and interviews with 500 technical or
scientific ESL individuals from 57 countries and 58 first languages
(and their bosses and colleagues); and recent interviews with NCAR/UCAR
scientists.</span></p>
