            Do you need to publish scientific papers in English? Do you find yourself getting a native

            to proofread your papers, only to get comments from reviewers such as “Please get a native
            proofread this paper”? Do people not understand what you write? Do you struggle to make co
            simple and easy for others to understand? If so, this series of three interactive lectures

            is for you. Topics will include the differences between Czech and English scientific writi
            structure individual sentences within paragraphs, how to improve the flow of your writing,
            use transitions, and how to analyze your own (or student’s) writing.


            WORKSHOP 1

            We will discuss what people really mean when they say that your text sounds too complicate
            cover how to link individual ideas and sentences together.


            WORKSHOP 2
            We will discuss how to use transitions, how to decide whether to be passive or active, how
            paragraphs, and how write in a consistent manner.


            WORKSHOP 3
            Guided activities will test your ability to apply what we covered in the previous two days

            the large number of participants, the instructor will not be able to give feedback to you 
            will comment on what he sees within the group as a whole.
