Each 2 hour-course is divided in two parts:
Students adopt the technique of rewriting, which means that they have a text of reference that helps them to make their own production. All the texts produced in class can be corrected and improved at home with the help of grid before they hand out their final copy the following week.
All the students are invited to complete a 'roadmap' on which they indicate all the corrections they've made on their copies.
