Welcome!
Our aim is to help you improve your English academic writing skills step by step. Our English Writing Advisory Sessions (EWAS) provide you with personalised analysis, advice and feedback on text structure, style, expression, vocabulary, spelling, grammar and other technicalities. Problem areas are highlighted, along with suggestions on how you can improve. We want you to become more independent and confident in your English writing and editing skills over time. During these sessions you will have the opportunity to meet face-to-face with an English writing consultant who has many years of editing experience.
To counteract the rapid spread of the coronavirus, the International House has suspended its on-site operations until further notice. During this time, the writing advisory sessions will be held in form of video conferences. Appointments will continue to be scheduled via e-mail.
Please send an email to Dr. Sonja Luther to register for a session.
We do not offer these directly. However, if you need translating, editing or proofreading of an entire text, contact us and we can put you in touch with other trusted experts who can. Please note that this kind of work is paid, subject to agreement with individual proofreaders or translators, and will generally need a little more time to complete.
The following are links and other resources that are especially useful. Take some time to explore them, as they can answer many questions.
The English department also offers support to students and lecturers of TU Braunschweig for presentations in English and teaching in English. You can find more information here:
