ENG4U Skills




So what is this page for?

Simple. This is a place where you can find help/instruction on the fundamental English skills you will need to master in order to be successful in English class. These include things like:

- writing an essay
    > what's an essay supposed to do anyways?
    > what's a thesis for? how do you make one?
    > what do the different paragraphs do? how do you plan an essay?
    > how should my essay look? (proper APA style guide)
    > what is credibility, and how do you get it?
- reading for meaning
- proving your point
- understanding the unique form and style of different kinds of writing
- creating powerpoints, pamphlets, posters, poems and other forms of media

Ultimately, I can explain this to you much better if we can have a conversation about it - so don't be afraid to come to class, to call/text me, or to email me - the skills you learn here will help you wherever you go next, so focus on the skills - you'll benefit in the long run.
