This course is for you if English is your second language and you need to write better emails in English – either as part of your day-to-day work or for study.
In this course, you’ll learn how to write more effective professional emails in English.
First of all, you’ll master the art of being polite in your English emails.
You’ll also learn to avoid the most common email mistakes made by people whose first language isn’t English.
By the end of the course, you’ll know how to address your reader accurately, appropriately and politely.
And you’ll have a host of English-language templates for common emails.
What’s more, the course is packed with opportunities for you to practise the concepts we teach and really hone your English skills.
Here are some more reasons to take this course:
Improved English grammar and vocabulary
You’ll get lots of hints and tips on grammar, vocabulary and idiomatic usage that will help you improve your spoken English and written English. The course will make you a better writer of English generally, using emails as the basis of study.
A deep understanding of English-speaking culture
This course will give you a rich understanding of the cultural aspects of writing effective emails. From our work with international learners of English, we have learned that different cultures have different attitudes to what “good” looks like when it comes to writing.
We’ve also seen some common mistakes students make over and over again that are less about the actual words and more about cultural differences. This course will give you an appreciation of those differences — and the tools to adapt your style and tone of voice so it’s appropriate for English speaking readers.
Better relationships with your readers
The course will give you sense of what makes a particular expression formal or informal, warm or cool. This will allow you to craft appropriate emails that take your English beyond the bland formulae of Chat GPT — to create strong bonds with your readers.
Confidence in your writing
This course will give you the confidence to assess the quality of your own emails – or, indeed, any email. It will enhance your ability to edit and improve your own work, as well as AI-generated content.
Opportunities to practise
The course is specifically designed to support your learning. Throughout the curriculum, we’ve included lots of practical activities to help you solidify your knowledge, so that writing effective emails becomes painless, fun and second nature.
Email templates
The course is packed with templates arming you with appropriate language for a range of email situations — which you can use and adapt for your own needs.
This course will make you a more competent and confident user of English for emails. So don’t delay – enrol today! We look forward to seeing you inside the course.
