TSL024 : FUNDAMENTALS OF ACADEMIC WRITING

This course is taught by Madam Natasha. She is a kind-hearted lecturer ! In this course, at first, it is quite hard for me to understand how to write a university-level kind of essay. We learnt how to write synthesis, summary, process essay, how to cite properly and many more. For me, the synthesis part is the hardest. The citations part is hard too. During my midterm, I lost marks for my citations. I had a personal consultation regarding my midterm paper with Madam Natasha. She showed me which part I lacked. Due to this consultation, I managed to realise my mistakes and I will improve those parts. It is quite hard for me as my vocabulary level is just at a moderate level. For my upcoming final examination, I want to achieve more marks compared to my midterm’s marks.
