English 470: Professional Writing

This course introduced me to a different form of writing than I was used to and I learned a lot from it. My skills in researching grew in order to create content for different professional settings, my analytical skills improved through writing for a variety of rhetorical contexts, and I had the opportunity to practice my oral communication skills with my classmates. These skills will be useful in the workplace and even in everyday life; professional writing is everywhere and it’s useful to recognize the influence of language on our choices.
