WRITING TECHNIQUES 

      INSTANT     DOWNLOAD!

Packed with powerful writing techniques, this  intensive package teaches high school students  how to write well, both technically (with step-by-step methods) and expressively (with tips on creativity, inspiration and structure).  It's also a simple yet  suitable introduction to university  and college writing and includes an e-book on  overcoming writer's block as well as a Teacher's Guide. The "Writing Techniques" e-course  provides:

	Clear steps for all types of Academic Writing (research reports, compare  and contrast, reviews, demonstrative essays, and so on).
	Writing Skills (persuasive, expressive, creative, analytical, argumentative, reflective, and so on). Acquire skills and tools for the rest of your life!
	Successful Techniques that have been tested and refined in classrooms (including Planning Methods and 24 Inspirational Methods)!
	The Daily-Update Marking Guide for a detailed analysis of strengths and weaknesses. See your work through the eyes of your teacher or lecturer!
	The different types of Exam Essays; how to quickly identify each type; and  how to respond to each essay type in a way that will Maximize Marks!
	A Teacher's Guide to enable confident instruction and encouragement!

In today's info-based society, writing inability can adversely affect:

	Your prospects of success in your education
	Your education choices
	Your prospects of success in your career
	Your career choices
	How effectively you communicate
	How effectively you process information
	Your ability to persuade or entertain
	Your ability to enjoy writing

Good writers will be able to turn in excellent essays and assignments at school, 
whether in the sciences, arts or humanities. They will be more likely to express 
themselves well in exam essays and will thus be more likely to receive high grades. 
If they decide on tertiary education, they'll be more likely to be accepted into a 
prestigious university or college. Again, good writers will be more likely to excel 
at university and will therefore attract better offers of employment. 
Good writers will communicate effectively and convincingly in letters, faxes, emails, 
memos and reports. In their personal life, they'll write entertaining letters, concise 
emails and persuasive letters of complaint. Good writers may even enjoy writing
articles and books. 

Whilst a young child who can write well is undoubtedly off to an excellent start, 
it is never too late for anyone to dramatically improve their writing skills...  
After all, the good writer is blessed again and again throughout life. 

What's the fastest way to improve your writing skills? 

A focus on grammar, spelling and vocabulary will NOT quickly improve your writing 
skills because it will take too long to progress from these fundamentals to actual writing.

ON THE OTHER HAND... 

A focus on writing practice will NOT quickly improve your writing skills either because 
you  may then only be reinforcing weaknesses and errors.

SO WHAT'S THE ANSWER?

A focus on writing techniques with concurrent learning of the fundamentals and 
writing practice WILL quickly improve your writing skills because the student is equipped 
to write. The student is provided with methods for writing successfully and this 
knowledge is immediately applied through writing practice (at which time the 
fundamentals are learned).

ISN'T IT BETTER TO START WITH THE BASIC BUILDING BLOCKS?

If you're teaching very young children, you wouldn't want to skip the basics, but for high 
school students and adults who want to build up their writing skills, you need a top-down,
"in the deep end" approach. Why? Realistically, older students won't have the time or 
inclination to sit down with grammar rules and spelling or vocabulary lists, and even if they 
were so inclined, this would not be the most effective way to progress. 
The fundamentals should be learned as the writing techniques are applied through practice. 
During this time, getting a firm grasp on the writing techniques should be the focus.

DOES THE WRITING COURSE TEACH THE FUNDAMENTALS? 

No, the fundamentals are not taught, as such, although we make suggestions as to how 
the teacher can teach the basics during the writing course. If the teacher would like further 
help in teaching these elementary areas, Daily-Update has suitable books that teach 
them in a highly effectual way (for example, grammar taught in context from original adventure stories or spelling taught through spelling methods rather than lists). Please 
email us and we'd be happy to provide detailed advice on teaching or learning the basic English skills. 
Our specialty is the rapid acquisition of all English skills.

How can you be sure these materials will help?

My name is Cameron Russell, and I'm the author of Writing Techniques.  I not only write for a living, but I employ many highly-skilled  writers. I have been the editor or  associate editor of a dozen  magazines and have written many books and many courses  for government agencies. I am currently a director of  Daily-Update Publishers, Australia.

My wife and I began teaching writing principles when in Taiwan. Our writing classes proved 
so successful that we were able to open a private Daily-Update school. Within a year, a 
second Daily-Update school had to be opened to meet the demand. I wrote the writing 
book, Writing Techniques, as a textbook for the schools and taught grammar in a new way
through my books, including Writing on Mars and Adventure in Adventureland.

THE RESULTS WERE AMAZING! 

Year after year, the Daily-Update schools had close to a 100% pass rate for both stages of 
the national English exam (a stunning result given that the national pass rate was only 11%)!

Thirteen-year-old students who had NEVER written in English before were able to write at
a level beyond that of a western high school graduate in a matter of only two years! 
We aren't talking about the odd exceptional student here - EVERY SINGLE fifteen-year-old 
student in the class was able to write at a level far above that of a western student aged 
seventeen! 

How did we do it?

In Writing Techniques, we provided ageless writing principles and exactly the types of writing practice that students need for rapid progress. We respect teachers and gave each one plenty of latitude to teach using their own preferred style. This helps avert dry or overly prescriptive classes. At the same time, there is just the right amount of substance. There is a great deal of solid teaching, including many valuable writing tools; methods for writing analysis; and step-by-step techniques.

We also recognized that each student has plenty to write about. They may just have trouble putting their thoughts, experiences and spoken words into written form. Helping students gain confidence in writing is only part of the answer. They may still have trouble starting to write. 
That's why we provided our students with the information on getting started at the beginning of the course. We found that this section was effective in inspiring our students; helping them avoid procrastination and other delays; and equipping them to overcome writer's block.  

In some writing classes, it can take students at least half an hour to start writing after the initial instruction by the teacher. Our Daily-Update students, however, were ALWAYS able to start writing quickly. There was NEVER any hesitation, procrastination or other avoidance behaviour. 
Rather, they had the skills to settle, focus, generate ideas and start writing with excitement. 
Before the end of class, each student would be able to hand in an essay that was of high 
quality, was well-considered and was lengthy yet concise.
