Welcome to Week 4!

Week 4 of Tell Your Story in English is about revising your story.

This is the last week of our course – time has flown!

In Week 4 you will start with your story draft, and rewrite it to make improvements. All good writers make changes to their writing so their ideas are as clear and interesting as possible. You might add details, or you might fix grammar and vocabulary mistakes. Use information from the lessons and suggestions from others to improve your stories.

Please read your classmates' final stories in the writers circle. You can click "Like" on your favorite stories. We might use them as examples when we offer this course again! Feel free to ask questions and give specific compliments to the writers, too!
