Perfect Writing with Preparation for The New SAT and TOEFL Tests 3rd Edition

In this introduction, our two authors, Marc Handler and Valerie De Carvalho, explain why writing skills are so important. In her essay “Why Writing Skills Are Essential for Students,” De Carvalho discusses the importance of writing skills in American universities and colleges. As she points out, the trend in academia is to place even more emphasis on writing. Students may grumble about having to write so many essays, but American colleges, in response to the demands of American employers, are insisting that students write essays in a wide range of classes, not just in English classes.
