In this class, we learned formal writing for the academic essays. Rab wrote several sentences on blackboard, and we tried to find mistakes in the sentences. By that activity, we could learn...
- do not use "don't " or "couldn't "
- do not start sentences with the word and,but,because, and other kinds of connection words.
-do not use "etc" or "and so on"
-do not use idiom
-do not use personal expressions such as I think, my, and others .
-do not start the sentence with the same word of the last sentence's first word.
-do spell check.

Also, we learned how to use quotes, and reference of it. Quote should be less than 20% of the whole essay.

Regarding as style, the length between sentences should be 1.5-2.0. Formal style should same length of both sides.

By this lecture, I could not only learn about it but also practice again and again to check whether the sentences in academic writing is correct or not.
In that point, I thought the class is effective.
