LIVE BUSINESS WRITING COURSES
No two students have the same goals and development areas and so at INSIGHTABC Writing Academy, we avoid teaching generic business writing courses. Private students receive 100% tailored and highly organic coaching while corporate groups benefit from customised business writing courses that reflect both the company’s goals and the students’ needs.
- Basic Business Writing (e-mails, letters)
- Live Business Writing I (reports, proposals)
- Live Business Writing II (newsletters, marketing)
- Integrated Business Reading and Writing
- Business Conversation
- Business Presentations
- Business Negotiations
- TOEIC
BUSINESS WRITING SEMINARS AND WORKSHOPS
For companies with staff who have specific business writing needs, such as honing the style and tone of their business writing or working on the format of their sales reports or proposals, INSIGHTABC Writing Academy will conduct a detailed goal analysis with the company and then appraise the writing of the staff so that we can customise short business writing seminars or workshops to fulfill the company's goals and meet the staff's business writing needs. These business writing workshops and seminars can be arranged at our schools in Bangkok, Cha-Am or Hua Hin, or at alternate venues across Thailand.
- Business Writing Seminars (tailored to needs)
- Business Writing Workshops (tailored to needs)
Our Cha-Am branch is a popular choice for writing workshops and seminars
BUSINESS WRITING - ONLINE COACHING
For companies with non-native English speaking staff who write regularly in English but who work outside Bangkok or whose schedules are too inflexible to study a business writing course or attend a business writing seminar or workshop, INSIGHTABC Writing Academy offers Business Writing - Online Coaching. The staff send their real world business writing to us, and in addition to editing the writing for mistakes, we also add comments, explanations, examples and short exercises on the more frequent mistakes that the staff are making.
ONLINE BUSINESS WRITING COURSES
The Online Business Writing Course is divided into modules. The length of each module depends entirely on the pace at which the student wants to or is able to complete it. Each module has 4 steps as follows:
- We send you a writing assignment
- You complete and return the assignment
- We conduct a diagnostic appraisal of your writing to highlight you main development area(s). We then send the report to you together with a worksheet containing explanations, examples and exercises of your main development area(s). The worksheet also includes sentences from your own assignment for you to self-correct.
- You complete the exercises and the self-correction and return everything to us. If everything is correct, we begin a new module.

INSTRUCTORS AND METHODOLOGY
Instructors: |
All our instructors are native-English speaking professional writing instructors, most of whom have a minimum 10 years’ experience of teaching writing courses. |
Methodology: |
Because no two students are the same, all our courses are 100% tailored to each student’s specific goals and needs. They are also completely organic, allowing the instructor to adapt the lesson plan to the student’s needs and learning style as and when necessary. The instructors first present new material, which the students then have the opportunity to practice in controlled exercises. Finally, the students perform what they have learnt in case studies and assignments. During the review sessions, students are always encouraged to self-correct whenever possible to further aid assimilation. |

SETTING GOALS AND MONITORING PROGRESS
Goal Analysis: |
When you come to Insight ABC Writing Academy to study, we first conduct an oral goal analysis to determine exactly why you plan to study. As well as giving us an idea of your oral proficiency level, this helps us to set your goal level and make sure we select the most appropriate course and material to help you reach that goal. |
Diagnostic Appraisal |
Before the course begins, each student completes a writing assignment which is then diagnostically appraised to identify individual development areas. |
Action Plan: |
Once we know your goal level, your current level and your development areas, we can formulate an action plan to map out how we can help you achieve your goals and how long it will take. |
Counselling: |
Your instructor and programme advisor will provide regular counselling throughout your course on your development areas, your needs, your progress and your goal achievement so that we can monitor your assimilation and make adjustments to the course if necessary. |
Diagnostic Appraisal |
A second diagnostic appraisal is conducted at the end of your course to confirm how your goals have been met or to outline any remaining areas that need to be addressed. |
