Ready to Write came about because of our threefold conviction that:
• lower-level students learn to write well and achieve a more complete English proficiency by learning and practicing composition skills simultaneously with other skills that they are learning;
• lower-level students are interested in and capable of writing expressively in English, however simple the language, on a variety of provocative and sophisticated topics if they are supplied with the basic vocabulary and organizational tools;
• ESL students need to be explicitly taught that different languages organize information differently, and they need to be shown how to organize information
correctly in English.
