Syllabus:
All
courses run for six weeks, with a two-week grace period at the end. Two

Student Reviews:
"After taking several types of business courses, I found the
Effective Business Writing course the most beneficial to me! Ms.
Linquist was always helpful when commenting on assigments and answering
questions. I would recommend this course to anyone wanting to make
writing easier and getting results!"
"Ann, I enjoyed the business writing course and found it to
be well worth my time. You did a great job in pinpointing trouble areas
and showing me how to overcome them. You were encouraging in your
feedback, and never, ever made me feel stupid for not knowing
something. I will recommend this course to others. Thank you again for
teaching this course in a way that was effective and fun!"
"Ann Linquist's lesson plans are easy to understand and make
me feel like I'm getting private lessons. She is a professional writer
and gave me effective suggestions that I could immediately use at my
present job. I would not hesitate to take courses with her in the
future if they are offered."
"Ann, thank you for sharing the wealth of knowledge and
skills you have in effective business writing with me. Your guidance
was invaluable. Even though time constraints were clearly present, your
leadership kept my commitment to both of us as a high priority. Ann, if
you had not provided me with feedback to my assignments, I do not
believe I would have been as compelled to continue. I have compiled a
binder with all the lessons, tabbed and highlighted, along with
references of the supplemental resources, and I am actively using it to
continue to improve my writing skills. I am using brainstorming
techniques regularly. You definitely should continue leading this
class. I have had writing classes before but this one I have found to
be a great asset. Your lessons and suggestions are now a working tool.
Good job."
"Ann, This was my first class online and I admit that it was
as beneficial as any class that I have taken before. Your approach to
the subject, and your way of breaking the topic into the levels you
did, opened a new door to looking at writing. I did not enjoy writing
at all and I had always tried to present my information rather than
write, but now I feel much more comfortable about writing. You were
always available to answer, no matter how small the question was. Thank
you for making writing a fun experience. I know I have a long way to go
but I am now writing. Thanks again."
"Ann, you are right, I can write better than I thought! You
have helped me realized I am not as bad as a writer as I originally
thought. Thank You!"
"Ann, your genius and creative ability to teach effective
business writing skills online, I believe, is what helped me land a new
job. Here is why: The information and tools you provided for each
lesson were presented so visually and were so interesting that I really
sensed what I needed to do to write effectively; you really understood
the why, who, what and how for me as your reader; with every
assignment, I gained confidence and the desire to write better from
using a new fun tool; your candid and positive feedback brought me back
each time. All these reasons are what helped me write all my cover
letters and thank you notes and emails for prospective jobs more
effectively. I just got a great job offer today. My expectations for
this course were surpassed. Thank you Ann,for your brilliance and
contagious love for writing."
"Before I took this course, I paid $300 for a one-day course
on the same subject from another school. My thought was that because it
was held at a big-name school it must be a great course and worthy of
the money, WRONG! I have learned more from your course, and your
instructor has actually worked in the the field she teaches!"
"Effective Business Writing was a fantastic class that
provided me with an opportunity to explore some new drafting and
writing techniques. The lessons were concise and informative, which I
appreciated since I have limited time to complete the course. I was
particularly fond of the sections on making appropriate word choices
and writing "no" letters. Both of these topics addressed questions I
was hoping to have answered as I entered the class. Your feedback to my
assignments was also greatly appreciated. It provided me with an
alternative viewpoint that helped to shape how I progressed throughout
the class. Feedback was timely and always specific. I really felt like
you were invested in my success and that definitely helped me complete
the course. Thank you for your help throughout the course and I look
forward to taking more online courses now because this experience was
so positive."
"For me, the email lesson and grammar refreshers were the
best. I use email every day for my job and most of the people that I
send email to are people who don't know me. Even with my co-workers I
have made the mistake of saying things a certain way with no harm
intended but because it was in email, it was taken differently. So,
this was a great section for me."
"Hi Ann. I enjoyed the course and wanted to let you know
about my favorite parts: (1) the websites you recommended - I
bookmarked these on my computer for future reference. (2) quizzes at
end of each lesson - really kept me on my toes! I took notes as I went
through each lesson which reinforced the tips for me and helped me on
the quizzes. Now I have a notebook to refer to as I write. (3) online
discussion - I enjoyed hearing your comments and also always read what
every one else posted. The discussion areas were fun and instructional.
(4) tips and suggestions for my writing project. I now have a very good
start on my application for the Synergy leadership workshop. I feel
much more confident with my personal statement this time! Thanks.
Looking forward to taking the final - I am not worried; I learned a
lot. Thank you again."
"I am in shock of how much I learned from this course...I have a new outlook on writing. I should have taken this class sooner."
"I am still in disbelief that I can now write letters
without the fear that I am sounding dumb. You have been a great
inspiration to me. I have ALWAYS avoided writing and have been afraid
to correspond in any way because I did not have any confidence in
writing. I thank you so much for your great ideas. I really love the
clustering and brainstorming and will always use it. Thanks again."
"I attended a meeting last Thursday at a church held
specifically for unemployed persons. Well, two executives were there
offering presentations on how to find gainful employment. I added my
own comments about the lessons I've learned in your on-line class and
told others where to find your "Effective Business Writing" course. It
was incredible to hear the executives, one being the president of his
own staffing agency, to point out the importance of communicating our
accomplishments clearly in a cover letter! I thought you might enjoy
knowing that your class is critical for unemployed persons. I have
valued the lessons I've learned from you! You're great and I know that
I will soon have a job."
"I enjoyed the course and gained some useful ideas from it.
I was very impressed with the high standard of presentation both of the
web site and the course material."
"I enjoyed the grammar section and found it to be helpful. I
just get so stuck when writing something important, so it was great for
me! I'm thinking of taking the "Grammar Refresher" course now."
"I feel like I definitely learned something very useful....Thanks!"
"I feel that the course will definitely impact on the
business correspondence that I have to generate. It was well written
and very helpful. I also felt that Ann had a great interaction with the
students. She offered constructive criticism while also encouraging the
student to continue forging ahead. She had us use a project that we
needed to complete anyway and then gave support and assistance to make
it the best possible. I would not hesitate to take any course that she
offered."
"I felt the on-line lessons were in a very easy to read
format. The format kept me motivated to continue studying the lessons
and the continual motivational comments kept me going and kept me
coming back."
"I found the course very good at refreshing my memory about the basics and hitting those areas where I needed work. Good JOB!!"
"I have really enjoyed this course and have learned quite a
few things. The information provided in this course was great.
Everything was concise and to the point."
"I have taken a few writing classes previously and this one is the best! I will highly recommend it to others."
"I have taken an online class [from another provider] before
and quit after two weeks, so I wasn’t going into this class with happy
thoughts in mind. To be honest; I thought taking this class was going
to be a waste of my time... boy was I wrong! I have used about 90% of
the material I have learned during the past 6 weeks. My proposal to
purchase storage bins was approved and I actually got to deliver them
today and see the excitement from my shipping department. I am walking
away with useful knowledge from this class and I thank you for all of
your honest and sincere comments in the discussion area."
"I loved this course! I learned so much and enjoyed every second. Thank you!"
"I really enjoyed the first 2 lessons and look forward to
more of the same great advice. I am changing careers at the moment,
moving from science to technical writing. I saw a job advertised that
would be perfect and before applying I sat down and used both
brainstorming techniques. I found I was able to write a very
well-composed letter in about half the time it usually takes me, and I
was happier with the end result. Having the ideas organized before
writing is something I have always known was a good idea, but have
never put it into practice. These new techniques for brainstorming made
the process of getting ideas sorted fast and very enjoyable, plus I was
able to work out some answers to potential interview questions in the
dialogue as well. Thank you for these ideas, I cant wait for the rest
of the lessons."
"I really enjoyed this course. I found the content addressed
all my my needs. And the course brought up issues/problems which I had
never stopped to consider. I would recommend this course to anyone else
who has to struggle with the daily task of writing at work."
"I really like Ann's teaching style. I recommend this course
to everyone. If English is your second language like me, don't hesitate
to take this course. Now I have more confidence about my English.
Thanks, Ann!"
"It has been a pleasure. You have taken me to a different
level in my writing skills. There were some things I knew and whole lot
of things that I didn't. When I was ready to give up, you helped me get
back on track by reading a reply to one of my discussions. You told me
I was doing good and to keep up the good work! I believed it and kept
going. Once again, thank you and you have helped be develop skills that
I need in my day to day business relationships. Thanks again, Ann and
take care."
"I thought this class was wonderful. The references I have now will help me throughout my career. Thank you for everything."
"I took this class because my boss saw some “gaps” in my
writing skills. I went on line and searched for effective business
writing classes, because we have no internal mechanism for teaching
writing in our company. I found your class and forwarded the
information on to my boss. She said, “Great, give it a try”. Well, it
was a wonderful knowledge transfer experience! Here are my top 10
reasons why I liked your course: 1. Registration was simple and fast.
2. Your school returned my calls in a timely manner and with a nice
person on the other end of the line, with answers. 3. The format of the
web page and class elements were user friendly. 4. It was an effective,
adult learning experience with practical applications and an abundance
of useful resources for future use. 5. It honed in on my recurring
grammar and style mistakes and explained how to improve. 6. It fit into
my busy schedule. 7. I enjoyed the discussion board postings and your
personal review and feedback. 8. I respect the writing process more and
understand its power in my work. 9. I enjoy writing much more now and I
tell others what I learned. I am far from being an expert, but I feel I
have some tools to pull out of my bag now to get a work letter
completed more efficiently. 10. I have applied the lessons learned in
my communications with clients, bosses and friends and I feel I am
delivering, well thought out, nicely formatted, and effectively written
communications. Goal accomplished! Thank you for your personal reviews,
feedback and suggestions for improvement on my lessons. I enjoyed your
feedback the most! I liked going on line knowing your written response
would be there heading me in the right direction. I respect your skills
and your candid explanation of the complexities of the English written
language. I am recommending your class to our company! You do a
wonderful job, Ann! Thanks!"
"I truly enjoyed the writing style due to its clarity and
simplicity. Also I felt like I actually communicated with the teacher,
face to face."
"I wanted you to know how much I enjoyed your Effective
Business Writing course. I have benefited so much your knowledge and
expertise. I have attended several workshops that addressed several of
the topics we reviewed; none were as beneficial as this course. I
enjoyed your honest opinions of our assignments and suggestions on how
to improve. I have had a number of opportunities to apply what I have
learned and have received more results/responses from my letters and
memos! I also find writing tasks to be less difficult and strenuous as
in the past. Thank you again for your assistance and knowledge! It is
greatly appreciated."
"I was hesitant to take an on-line course, since I had
always considered myself a classroom student and was not sure what to
expect. I found your course easy to follow, flexible, fun, interesting
and full of useful information. I also appreciated your comments,
guidance and support. I have learned a lot,but I need to keep
practicing to get better. It's already getting easier. Thank you again
for your help."
"I was skeptical when I first registered to take this online
course. I was not sure how much I would really learn from an online
class, and how I would be able to improve my business writing skill.
Since English is a second language to me, to be able to write like a
native and a professional is a very difficult task in my opinion.
During the last few weeks, your class approach, style, content and the
techniques you taught us in class have sparkled my learning interest,
and they have definitely helped me to gain a better understanding of
how to write effectively. I now can say that I truly feel that I can do
it too. Thanks for everything! This has been a wonderful experience for
me."
"I would like to thank you for an excellent class that I
have really enjoyed taking. To be honest, my former boss had me sign up
for the course to polish my writing skills. When someone makes you take
a class, you aren't always enthusiastic. But your fun approach and
teaching style made me really enjoy this class. Your lessons were put
together in a way that held my interest. Your writing style made it
very easy to read and follow. I often felt like you were in my living
room teaching me the lesson. Thank you for a great class!"
"My whole life I have struggled with writing, from grade
school on. Throughout the years I have taken many business
communication courses, and I am proud to say that your Effective
Business Writing course was exactly what I was looking for. I needed a
course that was not full of fluff and unwanted material, one that would
get right to the heart of writing an effective letter to one of my
clients. That is what this course has done for me. Your input from our
assignments was always positive and greatly appreciated. Someday I hope
to write as you do, or at least make enough to afford someone with your
writing skills to write for me."
"Positive approach with positive results. I enjoyed Ann’s
approach to the subject and the amount of details she included in each
section. She offered plenty of clear examples and a great summary of
each section. I enjoyed her professionalism in her responses and taking
the time for each student to make sure everything has been explained.
The best of all, I have developed an interest in writing. I now enjoy
writing and working with the material I learned. It is a positive
challenge that I am facing now. I can write better and I thrive to
better my capability. My sincere thanks to Ann and her staff."
"Thanks, Ann, for this very positive experience of learning
the writing process. You engaged us, me anyway, by your clear and
concise approach, you very congenial manner, and your very positive
attitude, particularly about each student's ability. You taught writing
can be fun! I learned to save my critical skills for later. Let my
creativity and instincts run amuck. I found thoughts I didn't know I
had lurking in me! And then, scribbled all over my page, was my
content! I never expected such results. That was one of the most
pivotal and delightful lessons for me! Two other key concepts for me
were: to write for the reader's benefit, not mine; and to take the "I,
me, we" out of writing, the unintentional mistake in tone. Using these
techniques, my writing became more focused, more manageable - more fun!"
"Thanks for a well thought out class. The information
presented was very useful in my daily business life. This class has
made my writing at work seem more professional and worthwhile. I have
already started taking trhe next business writing course!"
"Thank you for a wonderful experience for my first internet
class. Your honest replies are an important part of the class
experience. I have always been one of those students that enjoyed not
being singled out in a classroom, afraid of making a fool of myself. In
a classroom such as this I could be myself without being
self-conscious. I have learned many useful tips to become a better
writer and if my promotion becomes a reality I will have many
techniques to put to good use. I can also put these skills to good use
with my church work. Thank you again Ann for all your constructive
thoughts."
"Thank you for putting this class together. Although I wrote
successful fundraising proposals for more than a year, I was able to
pick up several tips from your class that will improve my writing. Your
class was well-organized and easy to understand. The assignments were
effective in reinforcing our learning. I also appreciate your feedback
on the assignments. Thank you, again."
"Thank you. I enjoyed my first online course. I liked the freedom to pace myself."
"Thank you! This course was very useful."
"The company that I work for is trying to keep management
personnel sharp, so they asked us to take a class that would help in
our day to day routine. I am glad that I chose your class and was able
get in because it was convenient and fun. The course was easy to follow
and adequate time was given to complete the assignments. I will
recommend this class to everyone. Thank you very much for your patience
with an old guy."
"This course showed me that there is more to business
writing than I realized. It had up to date standards and useful
techniques. It also showed me my strong points and weak points."
"This is the best writing class I have ever taken! I had a
difficult time writing in college, which has continued into my business
career. I recently received a promotion, which requires me to email
top-level executives. I would sit for hours just typing and deleting.
Writing is not second nature yet, but you have given me valuable
information to get me well on my way. I appreciate mostly your timely
and honest feedback. I will definitely be recommending this class to
others. Thank you for developing a class that works."
"This was a nice refresher course. I enjoyed the review in the grammar chapter."
"This was the best class of the three I took! I found Ann to
be the most responsive to all my questions, assignments and true
concern for my learning process. She is an tremendous asset to your
institution and you should invite her to offer more courses! I love
this course and will recommend it to everyone I know."
"This writing class is unmatched by any class I have ever
taken-on line or in traditional classroom setting. I thoroughly enjoyed
the instructor and everything she has done for us in this class. I
wished to have a little bit more time with the discussion and the
entire class. Best wishes to Ann and the college! Way to go!"
"Truly, one of the best courses I have ever taken. I say this as a university graduate."
"We have a Winner! The class is perfect for folks who want
to refresh and enhance their writing skills. The methods are fun,
creative, and instructive. There are so many helpful things: Printer
friendly versions of the lessons are a convenient study guide and a
valuable reference source; Discussion area is great for interaction and
feedback; Quizzes and assignments help you evaluate yourself;
Supplementary material exposes you to a wealth of additional
information. The experience is challenging and fulfilling. This course
is a real confidence builder!"
"You made a subject I thought would be boring - interesting
and upbeat instead. Thanks for: lessons that were kept short, so they
never felt like a chore; lessons that were designed to inspire thought
instead of instill rules; introducing brainstorming techniques that add
fun to routine tasks; a grammar & spelling refresher - we all need
that from time to time; and for making my first online course a very
nice experience. I'll be back for more. Good luck with your future
courses. I'm sure all your students will have as much fun as I did. I
highly recommend your course to anyone who is interested in better
business writing skills."
"Your class in writing techniques is an eye-opener! My
business contacts will benefit from your guidance for the rest of my
career. You have concisely demonstrated how to communicate without
worry of ending up in the round-file. I can only hope that other fence
sitters jump in to learn: the Why, Who, What and How of writing; how to
write with attitude; and the current and future states of email. Thank
you so much for making this quick, painless, and worthwhile."
"Your class was fantastic! Your enthusiasm, well-organized
approach, caring attitude, and effective teaching style all inspired me
to become a better writer. You gave me valuable tools to improve my
writing skills and instilled confidence in me that by exercising what
you taught and with continued practice, I can communicate effectively.
And it was all done in an atmosphere of fun. Perhaps most of all, you
made me think. Again, thanks, and may all you give be returned to you a
hundred fold."
"Your feedback throughout the class has been very helpful,
especially the suggestions you made regarding my grammar issues. I must
say my Tips Card is full of them! I look forward to using the Tips Card
to ease my writing anxiety in the future. It has been a delight to be
enrolled in your class."
"Your lesson plans and method of teaching is effective and
helpful. I liked the way you "spoke" to me as a student in each
chapter. Before taking this class, I dreaded writing - literally got a
headache. Now I look forward to using all the techniques you taught in
this course. Thank you for your insights and brilliant suggestions -
I've actually been complimented a few times this month by people I
write or email to. I'm even finding these new-found skills useful in
conversations. You are the best and I hope that you'll conduct other
classes on writing and communication."
"Your six week on-line course has provided more valuable
information than eight years of higher education. Beyond the
information it has provided motivation and confidence. Proceed to
enlighten a few more students. (Not too many, as I do not like
competition.)"
"Your writing course was excellent! The class has made me an
improved writer and a critical reader. Although I need more practice,
you have given me direction and an insight to writing I did not have
before. Here are my thoughts on the different parts of the class:
1)Readings. They were well written, had interesting stories, statistics
and quotes. 2)Quizzes. They were tougher than I thought! 3)Assignments.
These were well thought out and pertained to the reading assignments.
4)Discussion. It was fun and helpful to see what other people wrote for
their assignments. You gave good feed back and were ALWAYS so positive.
Another thing I would like to emulate in my writing. Overall, the
course has helped in many ways: I have improved my organization, focus
on one topic, and my tone shows a positive attitude. Best of all, I no
longer DREAD a writing project. This is the first time I have taken a
course on line and I have nothing but good things to say. Being the
mother of three small children, I was able to squeeze this in while my
kids played, napped or were asleep for the night. It has motivated me
to look into a masters program on line. Nice work, Anne!"
"You taught me more applicable writing skills and tips than
any class I’ve ever attended. The lessons were short, useful,
practical, and applicable to my daily written communications both
personally and professionally. Your format using short chapters with
multiples examples of the tips you provided in each lesson made the
lessons powerful. I loved the fact you don’t agree with all the writing
rules taught such as one-sentence paragraphs. Instead you’ve given me
the tools to enjoy writing. I hope you will continue to share your joy
of writing with others. You’re an excellent instructor with a natural
talent at putting your students at ease and motivating each to do their
best."
