Precision Writing

Date: January - February 2018

Client:
 D.R. Freeze Educational Publications

Job:

Editing:

- Precision Writing Instructors' Handbook
- Precision Writing Instructors' Sourcebook 

Details:

I was approached for this editorial project by a colleague in the teaching field, Dr Rick Freeze from University of Manitoba, Canada.

I had had the prior opportunity to implement his reading remediation programme, Precision Reading, co-presenting my findings with him at the 2014 Asia TEFL Conference in Kuching, Malaysia. The enthusiasm I have for and prior knowledge I had gained about said programme likely prompted his consideration of my services for this current publication.

This project involves the editing of content and language style of both books in the Precision Writing programme: the Instructors’ Handbook, instructing teachers how to implement the programme, and the Instructors’ Sourcebook, a comprehensive collection of learning resources to be used in Precision Writing. A most meaningful and inspiring project to kickstart the year.
