The ability to express one’s thoughts accurately, elegantly and persuasively in writing is one of the most essential skills for success in English, History and other humanities. It remains one of the key determinants for success in the modern world. Writing, though, cannot be taught through a series of formulae and rote-learned techniques. Language is not just a tool for communicating ideas; it is the medium through which ideas are formed and by which they become clarified. Language also cannot be taught in isolation from the history and culture in which that language evolved and developed.

 

Becoming a good writer therefore means learning to take control of the English language and make it one’s own so that it becomes not just a set of codes through which you communicate static ideas, but the oxygen sustaining your intellectual and social life. For that reason, writing needs to be taught not as an isolated, abstracted course, but through engaging with real ideas and deep and wide exposure to and analytical reading of the finest writers and thinkers in the English language.
