    Even though I have post-graduate education and am a linguist by profession, I find these videos on essay writing extremely helpful. It's incredible how many things learned in school are forgotten over time; relearning things in a different format and with an original twist is also beneficial. Everything taught on @EnglishUnits lessons helps students attending formal education and professionals who need their points across in writing. I've paid for writing courses that weren't nearly as helpful and exciting as English Units classes, which are free of cost.

    • @EnglishUnits

      Hi John Nemesis, your comment is so kind. Thank you so much. I am planning to do types of essays soon. When you wrote "how to use them the right way," what did you mean--how to structure them? Or which words and phrases to use in each one? (Or something different?)
