Sophia Writing Courses - natshar - 07-04-2020
I've got some questions about Sophia English Comp I,English Comp II and Fundamentals of English Comp.
1. What are the assignments like? What do you have to do for them? Any pitfalls or anything of note?
2. How do these courses transfer to TESU as specific course numbers?

So far I've done fundamentals of English comp at Sophia. I think there was only 2 or 3 assignments and they were pretty short and simple. It doesn't transfer in to tesu though, as it's a remedial class.

Fundamentals of English Comp: 2 assignments
English Comp I: 5 assignments
English Comp II: 7 assignments
I am not sure about pitfalls. I personally hate writing longreads, so I struggled a bit with lengthy assignments. I am also not a native speaker, which also does not help. But I am done with English Comp I and Fundamentals, so it is definitely doable. Everything is pretty straightforward, just stick to the rubric. Length requirements range from 300 words and up to 1000-1500.
Only EC takes Fundamentals, neither TESU nor COSC are going to take it. I am not sure about specific course numbers for Comp I & II @TESU, but I suppose these come as ENC-101 and ENC-102.
